Tools: get_snap_participation get_food_insecurity_indicators get_food_environment get_agricultural_data
get_snap_participation | Get SNAP/food stamp household participation by county using Census ACS Table B22001.
Returns the number and percentage of households receiving vs not receiving
SNAP/food stamp benefits, broken down by county. Essential for understanding
food assistance utilization in grant target areas.
Args:
state: Two-letter state abbreviation (e.g. 'WA', 'MS') or 2-digit FIPS code.
params: state*, county_fips, year |
get_food_insecurity_indicators | Get food-related economic indicators as proxies for food insecurity by county.
Combines SNAP participation rate (B22001), poverty rate (B17001), and
median household income (B19013) to build a food insecurity risk profile.
Higher SNAP rates, higher poverty, and lower income correlate with greater
food insecurity. Useful for grant narratives demonstrating community need.
Args: params: state*, county_fips, year |
get_food_environment | Get county-level food access risk profiles using Census ACS data.
Constructs food access risk profiles by combining vehicle access (B25044),
poverty status (B17001), and SNAP participation (B22001). Limited vehicle
access combined with high poverty indicates food desert risk. Useful for
identifying areas with barriers to food access in grant applications.
Args:
state: params: state*, county_fips |
get_agricultural_data | Get USDA NASS QuickStats data on agricultural production by state.
Returns crop values, production quantities, and farm statistics from the
USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service. Useful for understanding
local food production capacity in grant narratives.
Args:
state: Two-letter state abbreviation (e.g. 'WA', 'IA').
commodity: Agricultural commodity to que params: state*, commodity, year |
