The top 10 neighbors for Post Food span political journalists, policy outlets, and two food brands — a mix that reflects a Washington-insider audience rather than a food-media one.
The shape is flat: scores run from 0.95 (Brookings Institute) down to 0.93 (Post Politics), a band of less than 0.03 across all ten neighbors. No single entity dominates. Tallying the subcategories: four neighbors are News Publishers (National Journal at 0.93, POLITICO Playbook at 0.93, Post Local at 0.93, Post Politics at 0.93), three are Journalists (Seung Min Kim at 0.94, Mike Allen at 0.93, Jake Sherman at 0.93), one is a Research Organization (Brookings Institute at 0.95), one is a Blog (Morning Consult at 0.94), and two are food Brands — sweetgreen (social) at 0.93 and Georgetown Cupcake at 0.93. Post Food shares its own subcategory (News Publishers) with four of the ten neighbors, but the dominant character of the cluster is political and policy media: DC-focused journalists and insider news outlets account for seven of the ten positions.
The two food brands in the set — a fast-casual chain and a DC bakery — sit at the same similarity level as POLITICO Playbook and Jake Sherman, which says less about food coverage and more about a geographically concentrated, civically engaged readership that happens to eat in the same city it covers.
