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

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

SNAP participation rates across Oregon exhibit substantial spatial variation, with several rural zip codes in southern, central, and eastern Oregon displaying rates exceeding 30–50%, likely reflecting lower incomes and limited employment opportunities in those areas. The Portland metropolitan area and Willamette Valley corridor show a mixed pattern, with many suburban zip codes reporting relatively low SNAP usage (under 10%) alongside pockets of higher participation in urban core and smaller valley towns. Notable clusters of elevated food stamp reliance also appear along the southern coast and in parts of northeastern Oregon, contrasting sharply with affluent suburban zip codes west and south of Portland that register among the state's lowest rates.
