NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.
The highest SNAP participation rates, exceeding 35–50%, are concentrated in the southeastern quadrant of the District—likely encompassing zip codes in Wards 7 and 8 east of the Anacostia River—while the lowest rates, often below 5%, cluster in the northwestern areas corresponding to affluent neighborhoods such as Georgetown, Cleveland Park, and Tenleytown. A transitional band of moderate SNAP usage (roughly 15–25%) runs through the central and northeastern portions of the city, including areas around Columbia Heights, Brookland, and parts of Northeast DC. The stark east-west divide underscores persistent income inequality across the District, with SNAP reliance dropping dramatically as one moves from the eastern to the western portions of the city.
