The Florida Chamber Foundation's published a series of maps that outline the childhood poverty number and rate for every zip code in every county in the state of Florida. The maps are intended to provide business leaders, elected officials, and community leaders with valuable data to identify areas where the highest cases of poverty exist. The maps can be seen here.
