What this page cannot show
- Place of performance is the location the recipient reported. A contract recorded here may be performed, subcontracted, or spent elsewhere.
- These are obligations recorded in the period, not outlays and not money received by residents or by the state government.
- A per-resident figure divides work performed in a state by the people who live there. The two are not the same population, and a state with a large federal installation or contractor will rank high without its residents receiving that money.
