% of Population on Food Stamps or SNAP (Last 12 Months), by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Nevada

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

SNAP participation rates across Nevada exhibit stark geographic contrasts, with the highest concentrations (approaching 35–50%) clustered in the northwest corner near the Oregon border and scattered rural zip codes in the northern and central parts of the state. The Las Vegas metropolitan area in the southern tip displays considerable intra-urban variation, with some zip codes exceeding 25% while adjacent areas fall below 5%, likely reflecting sharp socioeconomic divides within Clark County. Much of rural central and southern Nevada appears in light gray, indicating either very low SNAP usage or sparse population with insufficient data, contrasting with the consistently elevated rates visible in the Reno-Sparks corridor and tribal/frontier communities.
