What was found?
The distance between schools and the closest hog facilities ranged from 0.2 to 42 miles. Thirty percent of schools were within 3 miles of at least one industrial hog facility.
Low-income schools in communities of color had industrial hog facilities within 3 miles more often than schools in mostly white and high-income communities. As distance from the nearest hog facility increased, so did white enrollment and income level of the school.
