USDA estimates 82% nationwide SNAP take-up as of 2018: https://www.fns.usda.gov/usamap
The Urban Institute estimates 56% in 2022: https://www.urban.org/sites/default/files/2023-08/A%20Safety%20Net%20with%20100%20Percent%20Participation-%20How%20Much%20Would%20Benefits%20Increase%20and%20Poverty%20Decline_0.pdf#page=14

It might not matter too much which number we seed it with in the ASEC, since reweighting will calibrate the net result.
