Nebraska vs Vermont

A $352.3M Nebraska recency slice against $47.3M in Vermont

Stacked stocks of $1.2B versus $1.0B look closer than the latest year. FY2026 of $352.3M versus $47.3M is the cut that makes this pair look lopsided. Recency is an obligation slice from USAspending.gov, not cash paid. It is still the distinctive ranking here.

Population of 2,005,465 versus 648,493 is a large Census gap. Intensity of $175.68 versus $72.92 runs with Nebraska, not against it. Cite USAspending.gov.
