USAspending in Maryland District 06, FY2024

A $27.5 billion file on 10,346 rows

Ten thousand three hundred forty-six awards is a thinner record count than many high-dollar district hubs, yet the obligation total still reaches $27.5 billion. That combination means the MD-06 extract is not a swarm of tiny rows by default; it is a defined dollar stock on a defined award count. The packet does not publish an average award size, so do not treat a quotient as a fact.

USAspending.gov is the source. First year and last year are both 2024, so 10,346 is a single-fiscal-year action count. Modifications can inflate row totals without adding unique vendors. This guide certifies the two rollups, not a vendor census.

Maryland performance location, not HQ

Congressional district on this hub is USAspending place of performance. A contractor based in another Maryland district, in Virginia, or farther away can still sit inside $27.5 billion if the work is tagged MD-06. A firm with a District 06 office can be absent if performance is coded elsewhere.

That split is ordinary in federal award data. Headquarters maps of “western Maryland contractors” will not match this page. The page answers a narrower question: FY2024 obligations whose performance district is Maryland’s 6th.

District 06 is not Maryland’s 90 leftover

Maryland District 06 is a mapped voting district. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending unspecified or non-voting bins. Unspecified Maryland performance, if it exists in the source file, would live on a 90-coded hub rather than inside this $27.5 billion total.

The Maryland state page rolls all Maryland place-of-performance codes together. That statewide view will not equal District 06’s $27.5 billion. Use the all-districts index to move among numbered Maryland seats and residual buckets.

Commitments versus cash paid

The $27.5 billion total is obligations. Obligations are legal commitments recorded in USAspending. Outlays are disbursements and can lag. SpendingVault does not recast MD-06 as Treasury cash paid inside the 6th district in FY2024.

If another Maryland headline disagrees, check series (obligations versus outlays), fiscal year, and whether geography is performance or headquarters. This packet supplies only the FY2024 obligation extract for MD-06: $27,489,268,188 on 10,346 awards.

Related Maryland geography pages

The Maryland District 06 hub holds the award table. The Maryland state page is the statewide obligation view. The all-districts index lists other Maryland numbered districts and any 90/98 codes in the same format. This packet does not rank District 06 against other Maryland seats.

Citing Maryland’s 6th without mixing series

Report $27.5 billion as FY2024 USAspending obligations with Maryland District 06 place of performance, on 10,346 awards. Do not relabel the code as unspecified. Do not convert 10,346 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.

Federal FY2024 starts October 1. Later USAspending corrections can revise both the dollar sum and the award count. Until a later extract, the certified facts are $27.5 billion and 10,346 awards for MD-06 place of performance.

Maryland District 06 can be briefed as $27.5 billion in FY2024 obligations on 10,346 awards with numbered code MD-06. Ten thousand three hundred forty-six is a record count, not unique vendors, and not an average award size. Keep other Maryland numbered districts and any District 90 leftover on other rows. None of their totals sits inside $27.5 billion. This packet does not supply those other dollars. What it supplies is MD-06 place-of-performance commitments from USAspending.gov, not outlays, not a headquarters extract, and not a multi-year series. A headquarters in the 6th without an MD-06 tag does not enter this file. Work coded to MD-06 from a vendor based elsewhere does enter $27.5 billion. The Maryland state page rolls all Maryland codes and will not equal $27.5 billion. FY2024 is the only year in the facts. Federal FY2024 starts October 1. Cite USAspending.gov, place of performance, obligations, $27.5 billion, and 10,346 awards. District 06 is a voting House seat, not a 90/98 unspecified bucket. Headquarters maps of the 6th will not reproduce the 10,346-award file. Obligations of $27.5 billion are commitments, not cash paid inside Maryland District 06 in FY2024.

Questions

How much did USAspending record for Maryland District 06 in FY2024?

USAspending.gov shows $27.5 billion in FY2024 obligations for Maryland District 06 place of performance, across 10,346 awards. The exact sum is $27,489,268,188. These are obligations, not outlays, and they cover FY2024 only. Those figures are FY2024 USAspending obligations with MD-06 place of performance, covering 10,346 awards, not outlays and not a headquarters extract.

Is Maryland District 06 an unspecified 90 code?

No. District 06 is a numbered Maryland House district. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets. The $27.5 billion FY2024 total on 10,346 awards is mapped to District 06 place of performance. Keep $27.5 billion and 10,346 as separate certified facts from USAspending.gov for fiscal year 2024 only.

Why are there only 10,346 awards next to $27.5 billion?

That is the FY2024 award-record count for the MD-06 performance code. It is not a unique-vendor count. The packet does not publish an average award size. Keep $27.5 billion and 10,346 as separate facts and use the hub table to inspect lines.

If a company is based in District 06, is the award here?

Only if place of performance is coded MD-06. Headquarters in the 6th is not the district field. Work performed in another Maryland district or another state will not sit in this $27.5 billion total even when the recipient’s office is in District 06.
