San Bernardino City Food Access
Map
So-called food deserts exist throughout San Bernardino County and are characterized not only by the lack of affordable grocery stores within a 1 mile radius, but they are also marked by other socioeconomic factors such as poverty, racist infrastructure, unaffordable housing, lack of transportation access and low-income.
Named “top 10+ journalism collaborations of 2021” by Center for Collaborative Media, “The Barren Mile” featuring M.B.C.’s “Food Desert’s” map underscores 25% of Black families combat food insecurity in America. Sponsored by Report for America, four newspapers, the Atlanta Voice, The St. Louis American, New York Amsterdam News, and Black Voice News combined forces to compose and publish the first national, collaborative Black news story in 50 years.
