Where District of Columbia is in the process
District of Columbia census tracts list: Opportunity Zones by county
Every District of Columbia census tract that is either on the OZ 2.0 eligibility list (66 tracts, IRS Rev. Proc. 2026-14 appendix) or inside a current (2018) Opportunity Zone, grouped by county. The CDFI Fund's designated list has 25 District of Columbia tracts, numbered by the 2010 census. GEOIDs here are 2020-census tracts, so we matched the 2018 zones to 2020 tracts with the Census relationship file: they cover 25 2020 tracts fully and 0 partly (25 in this table). "Partly" means only part of the 2020 tract was in a 2018 zone (how we match).
Eligible is not designated. The governor can nominate up to 25 of these tracts (the 25% cap). The federal nomination window closed September 28, 2026 (New Jersey is using the extension to October 28), and certified OZ 2.0 designations take effect January 1, 2027.
