According to the Greater Louisville project, 16.1% of Louisville residents experience food insecurity. This makes us fifth in the nation. Additionally, Louisville ranks second in the rate of children who live in a household experiencing food insecurity. The USDA defines food insecurity as lacking enough food for an active, healthy lifestyle for all members of the household.![]()
