SNAP Retailer Locations

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) program that helps low-income families and individuals buy healthy food. In Michigan, SNAP benefits are available through the Food Assistance Program (FAP), which is administered by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) and through MI Bridges. Participants in the program receive SNAP funds on an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card known as the "Michigan Bridge card", which works like a debit card. SNAP funds can be used to purchase nutritious fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy, bread and other products from participating retailers. Many different types of retailers accept the MI Bridges card, including grocery stores, convenience stores, farmers' markets, and more. Please see the MDHHS Food Assistance webpage or log into MI Bridges to learn about eligibility and to apply for the program.This SNAP Retailer dataset includes records from the USDA SNAP Retailer Location dataset that have geographical latitude and longitude coordinates located within the City of Detroit Boundary. A few retailers located outside of Detroit may be included in this dataset if the latitude and longitudinal coordinates provided in the USDA dataset fall within the City of Detroit Boundary. The data is updated every 2 weeks. Each record in the dataset contains data about a retail location, including the retailer's name, address, and whether they participate in the SNAP Healthy Incentive program. Retailer Type definitions are available from the USDA SNAP Store Type Definitions webpage and include convenience stores, farmers and markets, grocery stores, specialty stores, super stores, supermarkets, and restaurant meals programs. Information about the federal program and data is available from the USDA/FNS at the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) website and the SNAP Retailer Data webpage.
