The OZ Map: every Opportunity Zone 2.0 eligible tract
This is the OZ 2.0 map — an interactive opportunity zones map of all 25,332 tracts (8,334 entirely rural, eligible for the Rural QROF program's enhanced 30% step-up) that could be nominated as Opportunity Zones between July 1 and September 29, 2026.

How eligibility works
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA, signed July 4, 2025) tightened the criteria for Opportunity Zone eligibility. A census tract must now have a median family income below 70% of its area median — down from 80% under OZ 1.0. The contiguous-tract provision is eliminated, and Puerto Rico's blanket eligibility is gone. The result: 25,332 tracts nationwide meet the OZ 2.0 eligibility threshold, including 8,334 entirely rural tracts that qualify for enhanced benefits.
Each state's governor nominates up to 25% of their state's eligible tracts (minimum 25), with at least 33% of each state's nominations required to be rural. That means only about 6,333 tracts will ultimately be designated — roughly one in four eligible tracts.
Key dates: Nominations open July 1, 2026 and close September 29, 2026 (with a 30-day extension available to October 29). Treasury certifies the final designations in late 2026, and OZ 2.0 takes effect January 1, 2027.
For the full OBBBA ruleset — including the new rolling 5-year deferral, 15% step-up, and 30% rural step-up — see the OZ 2.0 vs OZ 1.0 guide.
The OZ 2.0 opportunity zone map, explained
Is there an official Opportunity Zone map for OZ 2.0?
The final OZ 2.0 designations won't exist until governors nominate tracts (July 1–September 29, 2026) and Treasury certifies them in late 2026. Until then, this interactive opportunity zone map shows all 25,332 census tracts eligible to be nominated under IRS Rev. Proc. 2026-14 — the closest thing to an official OZ 2.0 map available today.
What is the HUD Opportunity Zone map, and is this the same thing?
The HUD and CDFI Fund maps show the original OZ 1.0 zones designated in 2018, which expire at the end of 2028. This is an OZ 2.0 map: it shows the tracts eligible under the new One Big Beautiful Bill Act rules, not the old OZ 1.0 zones. Use this map for OZ 2.0 planning and the HUD opportunity zone map only for legacy OZ 1.0 investments.
Can I see the Opportunity Zone map for my state?
Yes. Search any address on the map to zoom to that location, or open your state from the state coverage list for a state-level opportunity zone map breakdown of eligible and rural tracts, plus its nomination status.
How is this different from a "qualified opportunity zone" or "QOZ" map?
"Qualified opportunity zone map," "QOZ map," and "OZ map" all refer to the same thing: a map of census tracts eligible for Opportunity Zone designation. This map reflects the OZ 2.0 eligibility criteria from OBBBA — a median family income threshold of 70% of area median, with no contiguous-tract provision — yielding 25,332 eligible tracts nationwide.
