Seventy grantee-scale records in one Head Start cell

This tie keeps USAspending assistance where CFDA 93.600 meets Arizona place of performance. The dollar book is $1,744,830,978.97. The award count is 70. Head Start commonly posts as prime grants to community action agencies, school districts, tribal organizations, and migrant programs. Seventy records do not equal 70 centers; continuations and modifications can share the tape.

The join does not prove that Arizona’s child-poverty rate, heat-related facility costs, or tribal land geography caused $1,744,830,978.97. Those are other series. This packet does not split Early Head Start, American Indian/Alaska Native Head Start, or Migrant and Seasonal Head Start. Correlation is not causation.

A reader who treats the cell as Arizona’s full HHS obligation book has left the CFDA-by-state definition. TANF is a different catalog number on the same stack. The 70 figure is a record count, not a child-enrollment total.

Seventy awards and a blended mean

Seventy awards under $1,744,830,978.97 imply a mean near $24,926,157 per award. Large Phoenix-area or statewide grantees can sit above that average; smaller rural or tribal grants can sit below it. The packet has no median and no share on the largest ten awards.

Cite both columns. USAspending.gov is the source; SpendingVault does not recast the mean as a typical classroom budget.
