NYC Foodscape Reports

About Foodscapes

Access to affordable and nutritious food is one of the cornerstones of good health. Without this, individuals—and communities—are at a higher risk of food insecurity and serious chronic diseases, including obesity, diabetes and heart disease. To improve the health of New Yorkers, we must recognize that each neighborhood has a distinct food environment.

Purpose

The Center’s NYC Foodscape Reports compile data and research in an accessible format to provide a community-level snapshot of the neighborhood’s food environment. The 59 NYC Foodscape Reports include the following for each community: Demographics; Neighborhood Access to Healthy Food; Food Consumption; Health and Disease Status; Economic and Living-condition Stress; Contributors to Food Insecurity; Exercise and Physical Activity Burden; Summer Meals; Community Gardens; Greenthumb Gardens; School Gardens; Farmers’ Markets; Official Snap Enrollment Sites in NYC – Human Resources Association; Food Pantries and Soup Kitchens; Retail Food Stores; Physical Activity; Food Policy Organizations and more. Additionally, the reports detail a comprehensive guide of the many food-related resources available to residents within their neighborhoods to support them in eating healthier. The Hunter College New York City Food Policy Center has compiled this information from various sources, presenting it in a user-friendly format to help NYC residents and communities better understand their local foodscapes.

The Data

The NYC Foodscape Reports were published in 2020 and are continually updated every six months. Data in the Foodscape Reports is collected from multiple primary sources to ensure the most up-to-date statistics for each indicator. Learn more about organizations and resources highlighted in the Foodscape Reports by visiting the Center’s Neighborhood Food Resource Guides as well as the Food Policy and Practice Database. Together, these three resources provide a comprehensive food-related guide to each New York City neighborhood.
