FY2024 USAspending in Virginia District 06
Virginia District 06 shows $7.4B in FY2024 USAspending.gov obligations for place of performance in the 6th district. The exact sum is $7,431,901,073.47 across 12,198 awards. Those dollars are award commitments, not outlays. VA-06 is a numbered House seat, not an unspecified 90 code. Virginia's 6th district lists 12,198 awards beside $7.4B in FY2024 place-of-performance obligations. SpendingVault indexes the rows on the Virginia District 06 hub.
Key figures
- Virginia District 06 shows $7.4B in FY2024 place-of-performance obligations.
- 12,198 awards carry the VA-06 performance code in the FY2024 extract.
- District 06 is a numbered House seat, not a 90/98 unspecified bucket or an at-large 00.
- Geography is place of performance, not recipient headquarters.
- Cite $7.4B as obligations, not outlays.
The $7.4B FY2024 commitment total
The $7.4B figure is the FY2024 obligation aggregate on awards whose place of performance is Virginia District 06. The exact sum is $7,431,901,073.47. Obligation means a recorded commitment. It is not Treasury cash already paid, and it is not Virginia's state budget. The matching record count is 12,198.
First year and last year in the packet are both 2024. Do not treat $7.4B as a multi-year stack. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1. Later USAspending.gov corrections can revise $7,431,901,073.47 and the 12,198-award count. Until then, cite both as the FY2024 VA-06 place-of-performance stock. Anyone stacking a later fiscal year onto $7.4B is adding a number this packet does not contain.
12,198 awards beside $7.4B
12,198 awards share the VA-06 performance tag in FY2024. That count sits in a middle band: large enough that scanning every row by eye is impractical, and not so large that the file is only a six-figure action dump. The packet still does not invent a typical award from $7.4B and 12,198.
Keep 12,198 labeled as record volume. Repeat modifications add rows. The Virginia District 06 hub is the table. This packet does not rank the 6th district against other Virginia seats. Virginia's 6th district lists 12,198 awards beside $7.4B in FY2024 place-of-performance obligations.
Performance geography, not a 6th-district HQ map
Even for a numbered Virginia seat, the district field is still place of performance, not recipient headquarters. A contractor based in another Virginia district or another state can appear on VA-06 if the performance location is coded to the 6th. A 6th-district headquarters can post dollars to another district when performance is coded there. The 12,198 rows follow that field, not the contractor's legal address.
VA-06 dollars are tagged by where USAspending records performance, not by where a firm files its HQ. That split matters for $7.4B: work performed in the 6th district can land here even if the vendor sits elsewhere. Work performed outside the 6th does not enter this file merely because a headquarters is local. Recipient-location maps are a different cut from this $7.4B file.
VA-06 versus leftover codes 90 and 98
Virginia District 06 is a mapped House district. District 90 and district 98 are USAspending unspecified and non-voting bins. District 00 is the at-large code used in single-seat states; VA-06 is the numbered 6th, not an at-large 00. VA-06 is not a leftover. Unspecified Virginia performance, if any, would live on a 90 page rather than inside this table. The $7.4B total uses the VA-06 place-of-performance code. 12,198 awards share that same numbered tag.
The Virginia state hub is the statewide obligation view. VA-06 is the 6th-district place-of-performance page. They are related but not interchangeable. This packet does not quote a statewide Virginia total and does not rank the 6th against other districts. Use the all-districts index to open other Virginia place-of-performance pages in the same format. Numbered seats and 90/98 leftovers are listed side by side in that index; they are not interchangeable geographies.
Obligations versus outlays
The $7.4B total is the obligation series. Outlays measure disbursements and can lag. SpendingVault does not recast VA-06 as cash paid. Mixing the two series makes the 6th district look inconsistent when the files are measuring different events. An FY2024 obligation can fund later invoices.
Recipient-location maps, calendar-year totals, and state budget documents are other products. Match geography, year, and series before treating a disagreement with $7.4B as an error. Cite VA-06 as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations of $7.4B on 12,198 awards. Do not mix that total into an outlay sheet or a headquarters extract.
How to quote Virginia's 6th without mixing codes
A complete VA-06 citation names numbered District 06, FY2024, USAspending.gov, place of performance, obligations, $7.4B, and 12,198 awards. Calling the code unspecified would confuse it with district 90. The Virginia District 06 hub is the table. The Virginia state page is the statewide roll-up. The all-districts index lists other Virginia seats in the same format.
The Virginia District 06 hub is the live table for VA-06. The Virginia page is the statewide obligation index. The all-districts index is the directory of other mapped seats and leftover codes. Quote $7.4B only with place of performance, federal FY2024, and the obligation series. Virginia's 6th district lists 12,198 awards beside $7.4B in FY2024 place-of-performance obligations.
Virginia District 06 can be quoted in one sentence: $7.4B in FY2024 USAspending.gov obligations on 12,198 awards with VA-06 place of performance. The unrounded packet total is $7,431,901,073.47. That sentence already names the series (obligations), the year (federal FY2024), the geography (place of performance, not headquarters), and the district code (VA-06, a numbered 6th seat rather than leftover 90/98 or at-large 00). SpendingVault does not add a unique-recipient count, an agency mix, or an outlay conversion. Readers who need the underlying rows should open the Virginia District 06 hub; readers who need statewide Virginia should open the Virginia page. Do not average $7.4B across 12,198 awards. Do not fold unspecified Virginia leftover dollars into $7.4B. First year and last year in this extract are both 2024.
Questions
- How much federal spending is in Virginia District 06?
- USAspending.gov shows $7.4B in FY2024 obligations with place of performance in Virginia District 06. The exact sum is $7,431,901,073.47. That is not an outlay total and not Virginia's state budget. The extract counts 12,198 awards for VA-06 in FY2024. The packet year range is FY2024 only.
- Is Virginia District 06 an unspecified 90 bucket?
- No. District 06 is a numbered voting House seat. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending unspecified or non-voting buckets. District 00 is the at-large code; VA-06 is the numbered 6th. The $7.4B total uses the VA-06 place-of-performance code. 12,198 awards share that same numbered tag.
- Are Virginia 6th-district dollars based on contractor headquarters?
- No. The district is place of performance. Recipients based outside the 6th can still appear on VA-06 if the performance location is coded to the 6th. A 6th-district headquarters can also map dollars to another district when performance is coded there. 12,198 awards follow the performance field, not HQ.
- Is $7.4B in VA-06 already paid out?
- No. $7.4B is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are a different series. SpendingVault does not convert the Virginia District 06 obligation total into Treasury outlays. Cite the figure with the obligation label, the FY2024 window, and VA-06 place of performance. 12,198 awards are the matching record count.
Congressional district is USAspending place-of-performance, not the recipient HQ. District 90/98 are USAspending unspecified/non-voting buckets.
