Ohio’s USAspending obligation file

Ohio’s USAspending.gov award files show $398.51B in federal obligations for fiscal years 2024 through 2026. SpendingVault publishes that sum as obligations, not Treasury outlays. 524,221 awards are counted for Ohio in the same window. The Ohio hub lists the rows behind those totals.

Key figures

  • Ohio’s indexed obligations are $398.51B for FY2024–2026.
  • USAspending.gov files count 524,221 awards for Ohio in that span.
  • The $398.51B is obligations, not Treasury outlays.
  • The Ohio hub is an award-file roll-up, not the state budget.

Ohio’s $398.51B obligation sum

The $398.51B Ohio total is a sum of obligation amounts on USAspending.gov awards for FY2024–2026. An obligation is a commitment on an award. It is not an outlay and not a Columbus budget line. SpendingVault does not convert $398.51B into cash already paid.

Keep the two-decimal form. Rounding Ohio would leave the indexed extract. The matching volume statistic is 524,221 awards. Both figures come from USAspending.gov as indexed on the Ohio spending hub.

524,221 awards in the Ohio extract

524,221 awards is a record count. Modifications and assistance actions in the source add rows. It is not a unique-recipient roster, and this packet does not publish one. Dollars and rows can move independently.

The Ohio hub shows $398.51B beside 524,221 awards so readers do not infer one from the other. This page does not invent a typical award size from those two totals.

Ohio’s FY2024–2026 index

Ohio’s posted numbers combine federal fiscal years 2024, 2025, and 2026. The $398.51B is a window total. It is not a FY2026-only figure and not a calendar-year stack. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1.

USAspending.gov still takes corrections. A later ingest can move $398.51B and 524,221 awards. Cite the current index with the FY2024–2026 label. This packet has no ingest clock.

Ohio’s $398.51B stacks FY2024–2026 obligation amounts from USAspending.gov. That is not a Columbus budget and not a Treasury outlay clock. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1. The 524,221-award count uses the same window. Refreshing the Ohio hub can change both statistics.

Ohio’s 524,221 awards and $398.51B belong to FY2024–2026 USAspending.gov files. They are not a Columbus budget and not a cash-outlay clock. The Ohio spending hub lists the rows. This packet has no unique-recipient total and no agency mix.

Ohio’s $398.51B and 524,221 awards are the FY2024–2026 pair from USAspending.gov. Cite both. The Ohio spending hub does not recast them as Columbus budget lines or as cash leaving the Treasury. Agency and comparison pages keep the same obligation unit.

Ohio’s $398.51B is still not a cash-outlay clock after you leave the statewide page. The 524,221-award count is still not a unique-recipient census. FY2024–2026 still binds both.

What Ohio’s hub leaves aside

The Ohio hub is not a catalog of every federal dollar in the state. It is an award-obligation index. Flows that never become USAspending.gov awards sit outside $398.51B. State budget documents remain a separate book.

If an Ohio federal-spending headline disagrees with $398.51B, check the series and the year. Do not force an outlay table onto these 524,221 award rows. Stay with obligations for FY2024–2026.

524,221 awards describe how many records were written, including modifications. $398.51B describes commitments. They are independent columns. Inferring a typical Ohio award from those two facts would invent a number this packet does not include.

If an Ohio headline disagrees with $398.51B, check the series and the year. Do not force an outlay table onto 524,221 award records. Agency and comparison pages on this site keep the obligation definition.

Further Ohio tables

Agency pages, state comparisons, and per-capita rankings branch from the Ohio spending hub. They keep the obligation unit. None recode $398.51B as Treasury outlays or as Ohio’s state budget.

Use those pages when statewide Ohio is too coarse. This packet has no agency mix. The facts to carry forward are $398.51B, 524,221 awards, and FY2024–2026 from USAspending.gov.

The Ohio spending hub does not list every federal dollar that touches the state. It lists award obligations. Agency, comparison, and per-capita pages keep that definition. This packet has no agency mix to quote against 524,221 awards.

Reusing Ohio’s award-file numbers

A usable Ohio citation names $398.51B in federal obligations, FY2024–2026, USAspending.gov award files indexed on SpendingVault, and 524,221 awards. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $398.51B cash outlays.

Side-by-side charts should hold every state to obligations and to FY2024–2026. The Ohio spending hub, agency index, comparison tool, and per-capita rankings all follow that rule.

Cite Ohio as $398.51B in federal obligations for FY2024–2026 from USAspending.gov files indexed on SpendingVault, covering 524,221 awards. Keep two decimals and the obligation word. Do not describe $398.51B as cash outlays.
