OZ 2.0 State Tracker
Where all 56 U.S. jurisdictions stand as they nominate census tracts to become 2027 Qualified Opportunity Zones under OZ 2.0 — tracking each one's status, deadline, and responsible agency through the nomination window (July 1–December 27, 2026). The new designations take effect for 10 years starting January 1, 2027.
September 28, 2026 update: Treasury recognized 128 more census tracts in 32 jurisdictions as eligible for nomination under an Alternate Framework, bringing the nationwide total of OZ 2.0-eligible tracts from 25,332 to 25,460. The Census Bureau publishes no median family income for these tracts, so Treasury used each tract's family-income distribution to confirm it meets the low-income test. The additions also raise nomination caps in 20 states, so the number of Opportunity Zones expected to be designated nationwide in the OZ 2.0 round rises from 6,544 to 6,575. Every total on this page reflects the new figures. A second framework, for tracts whose residents were temporarily displaced by a disaster, has cleared one tract so far; Treasury hasn't named it. To see the 128 tracts, open the OZ 2.0 map, then Advanced, and tick “Alternate Framework only.”

How the Nomination Process Works
