Key Findings

1. A new full-service supermarket in a food desert in Pittsburgh led to some improvements in local residents' diet, as well as increased satisfaction with their neighborhood as a place to live.
2. However, the study found no significant improvements in residents' fruit and vegetable intake, whole grain intake, weight, or rates of obesity.
3. The results suggest that continued federal financing of new supermarkets can potentially benefit residents' health and well-being.
