USAspending in California District 27, FY2024

A $6.9B total on a short 3,277-row file

3,277 awards is a thinner record count than many high-dollar California district hubs, yet the obligation total still reaches $6.9B. That combination means the CA-27 extract is not a swarm of tiny rows by default. The packet does not publish an average award size, so do not treat a quotient as a fact. The dollar stock and the row count stay separate.

USAspending.gov is the source. First year and last year are both 2024, so 3,277 is a single-fiscal-year action count. Modifications can still add rows without turning the file into a unique-vendor list. This guide certifies $6.9B and 3,277 awards, not a census of firms that live in the 27th.

California performance location, not HQ

Congressional district on this hub is USAspending place of performance. A contractor based in another California district or another state can still sit inside $6.9B if the work is tagged CA-27. A firm with a District 27 office can be absent if performance is coded elsewhere.

Headquarters maps of “27th district contractors” will not match this page. The page answers a narrower question: FY2024 obligations whose performance district is California’s 27th. 3,277 awards follow that field. Recipient-location maps are a different product from this $6.9B file.

District 27 is not California’s 90 leftover

California District 27 is a mapped voting district. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending unspecified or non-voting bins. Unspecified California performance, if it exists in the source file, would live on a 90-coded hub rather than inside this $6.9B total. At-large 00 is used for single-district states, not California.

The California state page rolls all California place-of-performance codes together. That statewide view will not equal District 27’s $6.9B. Use the all-districts index to move among numbered California seats and residual buckets without mixing their dollars into $6,942,130,877.36.

Why $6.9B is not cash paid in the 27th

The $6.9B total is the obligation series. Outlays measure disbursements and can lag. SpendingVault does not recast CA-27 as cash paid. Mixing the two series makes the 27th look inconsistent when the files are measuring different events. An FY2024 obligation can fund later invoices.

If another California headline disagrees with $6.9B, check series, fiscal year, and whether geography is performance or headquarters. Cite CA-27 as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations of $6.9B on 3,277 awards. The unrounded packet figure is $6,942,130,877.36.

Citing California’s 27th without mixing series

Report $6.9B as FY2024 USAspending obligations with California District 27 place of performance, on 3,277 awards. Do not relabel the code as unspecified. Do not convert 3,277 rows into unique firms. Do not drop the total onto an outlay chart or a headquarters map unless that product already uses the same rules.

The California District 27 hub holds the award table. The California state page is the statewide obligation view. The all-districts index lists other California numbered districts and any 90/98 codes in the same format. This packet does not rank District 27 against other California seats. Federal FY2024 starts October 1.

Reading CA-27 as a short California extract

California District 27 can be briefed as $6.9B in FY2024 obligations on 3,277 awards with numbered code CA-27. Treat 3,277 as an action stock, not unique vendors. Keep other California numbered districts and any District 90 leftover on other rows. What this packet supplies is CA-27 place-of-performance commitments from USAspending.gov, not outlays, not a headquarters extract, and not a multi-year series.

The California District 27 hub is the live table for CA-27. The California page is the statewide obligation index. The all-districts index is the directory of other mapped seats and leftover codes. Quote $6.9B only with place of performance, federal FY2024, and the obligation series. Do not fold unspecified California leftover dollars into $6.9B. A short 3,277-row file at this dollar scale still does not license an invented average award.

Questions

How many awards are tagged to California District 27 in FY2024?

The extract lists 3,277 awards with CA-27 place of performance. That is a short file next to $6.9B in obligations. The unrounded dollar total is $6,942,130,877.36. 3,277 is record volume, not unique vendors. Modifications can add rows without adding firms.

Is CA-27 a non-voting 98 code?

No. District 98 is a USAspending non-voting bucket. CA-27 is numbered District 27, a voting House seat. District 90 is the unspecified leftover. At-large 00 is not used for California’s 27th. Keep $6.9B and 3,277 awards on the mapped 27th page.

Does a CA-27 row mean the vendor is based in the 27th?

No. The district is place of performance. Recipients based outside the 27th can still appear if the performance location is coded CA-27. A 27th-district headquarters can map dollars to another district when performance is coded there. 3,277 awards follow the performance field, not HQ.

What series is $6.9B on USAspending.gov?

$6.9B is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are a different series. SpendingVault does not convert the California District 27 obligation total into Treasury outlays. Cite the figure with the obligation label, the FY2024 window, and CA-27 place of performance. 3,277 awards are the matching record count.
