Hunger in the United States of America affects millions of Americans, including some who are middle class, or who are in households where all adults are in work. The prevelance of food insecurity rose considerably during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The United States produces far more food than it needs for domestic consumption—hunger within the U.S. is caused by some Americans having insufficient money to buy food for themselves or their families. Additional causes of hunger and food insecurity include neighborhood deprivation and agricultural policy.
