A good friend of mine is trying to solve the food desert problem in inner city Rochester, NY. It would be interesting to see food desert data overlaid with this data as well. It's obvious that Manhattan is not a food desert and one can easily get fresh produce. Not sure about certain places in the Bronx or Queens though. It would also be interesting to see gentrification as a contrast.
-edit- on an iPad now so can't see the flash based map, but data can be found here:http://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/food-desert-locator/go-to-the-locator.aspx http://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/food-desert-locator/go...
