Abstract
In this thesis, I examine two counties in New York: the Bronx, a densely populated borough of New York City, and Franklin County, a sparsely populated rural county bordering Canada. Despite their demographic and geographic differences, both suffer from high rates of food and health insecurity. This comparison provides an opportunity to understand how structural inequities intersect with local conditions to influence health outcomes.
