The Problem
Los Angeles is covered in food deserts, mostly consisting of low-income households, inadequate access to transportation, and few large-scale food retailers, leading to a heavy reliance on pricey corner stores and fast foods instead of affordable fresh foods.
Fact: In South Los Angeles, there are only seven supermarkets serving over 750,000 residents
