What this data cannot show

  • An obligation is a binding commitment to pay, not money paid. Outlays are reported separately and the two are never equal in the same year.
  • A recipient is the party named on the award, which is not always the party that does the work or the one that ends up with the money. A state agency passing a federal grant on to a county appears here and the county does not.
  • The ranks and shares on this page are among the largest recipients of each year, not every recipient the publisher names: we keep the largest and not the rest. Both come from the same download of the publisher’s data, on the date above.
