Food Environment by State & County

The nutrition database says what a food contains. This is the other half — what food you can actually get where you live: how far people are from a supermarket, how many groceries and fast-food outlets there are per person, SNAP and farmers-market coverage, and diet-related health. From the USDA Food Environment Atlas, 51 states and 3,144 counties.
