FY2024 USAspending in Massachusetts’s 6th district

What $31.1 billion includes for MA-06

The $31.1 billion total is the FY2024 obligation sum for awards whose USAspending place of performance is Massachusetts District 06. A commitment on an award record is not a Treasury disbursement. Massachusetts’s state budget is a separate series and is not this $31.1 billion. Massachusetts District 06’s $31.1 billion is the FY2024 obligation roll-up for that mapped seat. It is not MA-05 and not a 90 bucket. 7,687 awards are the matching row count.

First year and last year are both 2024. Do not treat the total as a multi-year stack. Federal FY2024 begins October 1. Later USAspending.gov corrections can revise $31.1 billion and the 7,687-award count. Federal FY2024 is the only year here. Do not stack another year onto $31.1 billion. Keep 7,687 awards in that same window.

Mapped district, not a 90 bucket

MA-06 is a numbered House seat in the source file. Place of performance, not recipient headquarters, assigns the district. A North Shore or northeastern Massachusetts performance location can appear even when the recipient’s legal address sits in Boston, another Massachusetts district, or another state. Place of performance fills the 7,687-row extract. A Boston-area headquarters can still miss MA-06 if the work is coded to another district.

Unspecified Massachusetts performance uses USAspending district 90; non-voting codes use 98. Those residual bins are separate pages. This hub is only the mapped 6th district, not District 05. MA-06 is a numbered House seat. Unspecified Massachusetts performance belongs on district 90 or 98, not inside this $31.1 billion total.

7,687 awards in the FY2024 table

7,687 is the FY2024 record count for MA-06 place of performance. Modifications can each add a line. The packet does not list unique recipients or invent a typical award from $31.1 billion and 7,687 rows.

Keep the dollar total and the count as independent facts. The Massachusetts District 06 hub is the line-level view. This packet does not rank District 06 against other Massachusetts seats.

7,687 is a record count. Modifications can add rows. The Massachusetts District 06 hub is the table. $31.1 billion stays the FY2024 obligation roll-up for MA-06. Those 7,687 award rows remain a count, not a list of unique Massachusetts recipients.

Obligation language on this page

SpendingVault cites $31.1 billion as obligations. Outlays can lag or split across fiscal years. Calling MA-06 “cash spent” would relabel the series.

If another Massachusetts headline disagrees with $31.1 billion, check whether it uses outlays, recipient location, or a different year. Stay with place of performance and FY2024 obligations when quoting District 06.

Cite MA-06 as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations of $31.1 billion on 7,687 awards. Do not paste that total into an outlay sheet or merge it with District 05.

Massachusetts statewide context

The Massachusetts state page aggregates mapped districts and any unspecified buckets. MA-06 is one mapped slice, not the statewide total.

The all-districts directory uses the same place-of-performance rule. Compare MA-06 only on FY2024 obligations. This packet does not rank the 6th district among Massachusetts’s seats.

Massachusetts District 05 is a different hub. Statewide Massachusetts is another page. This packet does not quote those other figures. Stay on MA-06 for the 6th district file.

Reusing Massachusetts District 06 without mixing seats

The $31.1 billion FY2024 obligation figure for MA-06 is an USAspending.gov file statistic. SpendingVault does not convert 7,687 awards into unique firms, an agency mix, or cash paid.

If a comparison already uses recipient location or Treasury outlays, rebuild it before placing $31.1 billion beside those columns. The Massachusetts state hub and the all-districts index stay on obligations and place of performance. Massachusetts District 05 is a different mapped hub with its own FY2024 file. MA-06’s $31.1 billion and 7,687 awards stay on this page. Do not merge the 5th and 6th district extracts, and do not recode this file as outlays or headquarters location.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Massachusetts’s 6th district?

USAspending.gov records $31.1 billion in FY2024 obligations with place of performance in Massachusetts District 06. That is not an outlay total and not Massachusetts’s state budget. The matching award count is 7,687 for FY2024. First year and last year are both 2024.

Is MA-06 the contractor’s headquarters district?

Not necessarily. USAspending tags the district by place of performance. Recipients based outside the 6th district can still appear if the performance location is coded MA-06. A MA-06 legal address does not pull every dollar onto this hub. Cite Massachusetts District 06 as FY2024 place-of-performance obligations, not as outlays and not as a merge with District 05.

Are Massachusetts District 06’s $31.1 billion outlays?

No. $31.1 billion is an obligation aggregate from FY2024 award files. Outlays are a different series. SpendingVault does not convert MA-06 obligations into Treasury payments. Cite the figure with the obligation label and the FY2024 window. Cite Massachusetts District 06 as FY2024 place-of-performance obligations, not as outlays and not as a merge with District 05.

How many awards are coded to Massachusetts District 06?

7,687 awards appear for MA-06 place of performance in FY2024. That is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-recipient roster. This packet does not divide $31.1 billion by 7,687 awards to invent an average. Cite Massachusetts District 06 as FY2024 place-of-performance obligations, not as outlays and not as a merge with District 05.
