Community Investment — CFDA 12.600
$670.2M in federal obligations is indexed on USAspending.gov for Community Investment (CFDA 12.600). The listing carries 33 awards, 31 recipients, and an 18-state geographic count. Those dollars are assistance obligations, not Treasury outlays and not a count of bases, housing units, or local projects. Thirty-three awards against 31 named organizations is nearly a one-row-per-payee file, not a high-volume formula roster.
Key figures
- CFDA 12.600 shows $670.2M in USAspending obligations for Community Investment.
- The listing covers 33 awards and 31 recipients — nearly one row per payee.
- Awards are coded to 18 states in the USAspending geographic count.
- Totals are obligations, not outlays or project counts.
Community-investment obligations at $670.2M
USAspending.gov records $670,168,856.15 in obligations under CFDA 12.600. Thirty-three awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $20.31 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical local-project invoice and not a cost per installation-adjacent community.
The assistance-listing title is COMMUNITY INVESTMENT. CFDA 12.600 is the identifier. Other Department of Defense community, housing, or installation listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $670.2M. Combining those codes would invent a combined community-support total this packet does not contain.
31 recipients on 33 award rows
Thirty-one recipients share 33 awards, or about 1.06 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $670,168,856.15 evenly would assign about $21.62 million per recipient. That density is a project-grant fingerprint: almost one assistance row per named organization, each carrying a large dollar stock. The packet does not list the 31. Recipient count is the organizational headcount on the federal extract, not a census of towns or military families. Thirty-one named payees on 33 rows is the 12.600 fingerprint.
Eighteen states in the geographic count is a partial map. Community-investment dollars follow project geography as coded, not a 50-state equal share. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.
Nearly one award per recipient is not a project census
Among Defense assistance listings, 12.600 is a low-row, high-average file: 33 awards against 31 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of community projects” and a worse proxy for housing units. Recipients (31) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (33) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.
The packet does not report acres, barracks, or school seats. Citing 33 as installations would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, states. Thirty-three awards at about $20.31 million each is project-grant architecture, not a formula-to-every-state book.
Obligations versus community outlays
The $670.2M is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Community Investment awards — are not in the packet. A project file can show a large obligation stock while construction draws follow a later calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.
Use CFDA 12.600 to size this Community Investment listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a MILCON or impact-aid dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 12.600.
What the 12.600 tables omit
The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a base directory, not a housing inventory, and not a local-government roster. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $670,168,856.15. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 33 award rows.
Place-of-performance on 18 states is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to grantees.
Community Investment’s 18-state map and 31-recipient headcount together describe a project-grant book, not a 50-state Defense formula. A researcher comparing 12.600 with MILCON or impact-aid codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The $670.2M stock is the USAspending obligation book for this listing only.
