Demographics
Census ACS, 2023
Food Security
An estimated 11.7% of households in Tennessee report being food-insecure in a typical month, and 11.2% of residents receive SNAP benefits — the federal program that helps low-income families buy groceries.
Food Insecurity
11.7%
Natl avg: 12.8% · -1.1 pp vs US
USDA ERS, state-level 2021-23
SNAP Participation
11.2%
Natl avg: 12.4% · -1.2 pp vs US
USDA ERS, state-level 2022
Food insecurity exceeds SNAP coverage by 0.5 percentage points — an apparent safety-net gap.
State-level USDA estimates — not county-specific. Methodology
Both values are USDA state-level estimates applied uniformly to every county in Tennessee. Food insecurity is a household-survey estimate (not directly comparable to SNAP enrollment share); the gap is shown as an adequacy signal at the state level, not a county-specific measure.
Education
Note: enrollment and spending data may be pro-rated from multi-county school districts — figures reflect a bridged estimate, not district-level totals.

Medicare Spending vs Local Income
32.2% of per-capita income ($39,899)
For every dollar the average resident earns in a year, Medicare spends about 32¢ per enrolled beneficiary here. Higher numbers usually mean a lot of older residents, expensive care patterns, or both.
Per-beneficiary Medicare spending as a share of BEA per-capita income. Inflates naturally in counties with a high senior population (compare with SSA ratio). Sources: CMS Medicare Geographic Variation × BEA.

Shortage area
Mental health
Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) designations are federal flags that mark places where patients may have trouble finding a primary-care doctor, dentist, or mental-health provider. The designation unlocks funding and staffing programs, so areas without one aren’t necessarily well-served — they may just not have applied.
2,031 Medicare beneficiaries · RUCC 1 — Metro - Counties in metro areas of 1 million population or more. HPSA designation is administrative (depends on filed applications), not a pure capacity measure. Sources: HRSA HPSA × CMS Medicare × USDA ERS.
