What Percentage of SNAP Recipients Are White Males?
Based on the information available, estimating the exact percentage of SNAP recipients who are white males requires combining data on race and gender, which can be challenging.
However, available statistics can provide an idea of relative proportions:
>Gender Breakdown: Women account for a slight majority of SNAP recipients, at 54%, while men account for 46%.
>Racial Breakdown: About 37% of recipients are White.
>Gender and Race Combined (Older data): A 2013 Pew Research Center article indicates white women were about twice as likely as white men to receive food stamp assistance (19% vs. 11%).
