Pennsylvania’s 5th district FY2024 USAspending

The $16.1 billion FY2024 obligation file

$16.1 billion is the obligation total USAspending.gov attaches to Pennsylvania District 05 for fiscal year 2024. The figure is a sum of award commitments, not cash already paid and not Pennsylvania’s state budget. This page does not translate $16.1 billion into outlays. PA-05’s $16.1 billion is the FY2024 obligation file for that mapped seat. It is not a 90 unspecified bin and not a 98 non-voting bin. 30,012 awards are the matching count.

The packet’s year window is FY2024 only. First year and last year are both 2024. Federal fiscal years start October 1. USAspending.gov can still correct records, which would move $16.1 billion and the 30,012-award count. There is no FY2025 figure in this packet to add to $16.1 billion. Cite the year as federal FY2024 when the 30,012-award count is reused. Do not treat $16.1 billion as a calendar-year 2024 total.

PA-05 place of performance versus headquarters

Congressional district here is the USAspending place-of-performance field. A performance site coded to the 5th district can appear even when the recipient’s headquarters sits in another Pennsylvania district or another state. A firm with a PA-05 mailing address can also post dollars elsewhere if performance is coded there. A recipient based outside the 5th district can still appear among the 30,012 rows if place of performance is PA-05. Headquarters is the wrong join key.

District 05 is a numbered House seat. Pennsylvania rows that never received a voting-district number sit in district 90 (unspecified) or 98 (non-voting). Those buckets are not this PA-05 table. Do not merge this page with other Pennsylvania mapped seats. Unspecified Pennsylvania performance uses district 90, not this $16.1 billion mapped hub. Keep 30,012 awards on the 5th district’s performance code.

30,012 awards in a thick FY2024 file

30,012 is a thick FY2024 record count for PA-05 place of performance beside $16.1 billion. Thick extracts usually mix contracts, assistance actions, and modifications; each can add a line. The packet does not publish unique recipients, so 30,012 is not a vendor census. A high award count does not by itself prove many small actions or few large ones — this packet has no size table. Do not divide $16.1 billion by 30,012. Use the Pennsylvania District 05 hub to inspect lines. $16.1 billion remains the obligation total.

30,012 remains a record count. Modifications can add rows without turning the extract into a unique-firm list. The Pennsylvania District 05 hub is the table. $16.1 billion stays the FY2024 obligation roll-up for PA-05. If another briefing quotes a different Pennsylvania district, that is a different hub with its own packet — not a correction to 30,012 or $16.1 billion.

Obligations, not Treasury outlays

The $16.1 billion total is the obligation series. Outlays measure disbursements and can land in a later fiscal year. Mixing series makes PA-05 look inconsistent when the files are simply counting different events. SpendingVault does not recast this district as cash paid. A FY2024 obligation can fund later invoices; a later modification can change net amounts without turning this page into a cash register.

Recipient-location maps, calendar-year totals, and state budget documents are other products. Match geography, year, and series before treating a disagreement with $16.1 billion as an error. Cite PA-05 as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations of $16.1 billion on 30,012 awards. Do not mix that total into an outlay sheet or a headquarters extract.

Pennsylvania statewide and the district index

Pennsylvania’s state hub is the statewide obligation view. PA-05 is one mapped place-of-performance district inside that state. Statewide Pennsylvania is not equal to District 05. Other Pennsylvania mapped seats have their own hubs; this packet does not quote those other figures. Stay on PA-05 for the 5th district file.

The all-districts index lists other Pennsylvania seats and unspecified buckets in the same format. Compare PA-05 only on FY2024 obligations. This packet does not rank the 5th district. Numbered seats and 90/98 leftovers are listed side by side in that index; they are not interchangeable geographies.

Keeping Pennsylvania District 05 on one series

The $16.1 billion FY2024 obligation total for PA-05 is an indexed USAspending.gov statistic. SpendingVault does not convert 30,012 awards into unique firms or cash paid, and it does not merge District 05 with a 90 leftover page. A complete citation names the 5th district, FY2024, USAspending.gov, place of performance, obligations, $16.1 billion, and 30,012 awards.

Align comparisons to place of performance, federal FY2024, and obligations before placing $16.1 billion next to another Pennsylvania column. The Pennsylvania state hub and the all-districts index use the same rules. PA-05’s $16.1 billion and 30,012 awards stay on this page. Do not recode this extract as outlays, and do not treat district 05 as an unspecified bucket.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Pennsylvania’s 5th district?

USAspending.gov shows $16.1 billion in FY2024 obligations with place of performance in Pennsylvania District 05. That is not an outlay total and not Pennsylvania’s state budget. The same extract counts 30,012 awards for PA-05. First year and last year are both 2024. Cite the figure as place-of-performance obligations, not headquarters spending.

Does PA-05 spending mean the contractor is based there?

No. The district is USAspending place of performance, not recipient headquarters. Work coded to Pennsylvania’s 5th district can belong to a recipient based in another district or another state. A PA-05 mailing address does not force every dollar onto this hub. Only the performance tag puts an award among the 30,012 records.

Are Pennsylvania District 05’s $16.1 billion outlays?

No. $16.1 billion is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are cash leaving the Treasury. SpendingVault does not convert PA-05 obligations into outlays. Keep the obligation label and the FY2024 window when the figure is reused. The matching award count is 30,012.

How many awards are tagged to Pennsylvania District 05?

30,012 awards appear for PA-05 place of performance in FY2024. That figure is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-recipient census. This packet does not divide $16.1 billion by 30,012 to invent an average. Use the Pennsylvania District 05 hub to inspect individual lines.
