DHS, not DOT or HUD, on the California tag

This relationship page isolates awarding agency 070 and place-of-performance CA. $34,056,334,738.25 is the DHS obligation sum. 4,171 is the DHS award count. Department of Transportation in California and Department of Housing and Urban Development in California are other codes with other totals. They are not subsets of $34,056,334,738.25.

About $8.17 million per award follows from a thin-to-mid row count. Component names — Coast Guard, FEMA, CBP, and others — are not in the facts, so they are not assigned shares.

The temptation is to narrate $34,056,334,738.25 as money delivered to residents, then to narrate 4,171 as people served. Neither translation is in the fields. Obligations are commitments. Award count is records. The overlay, not the average, is the next step for anyone who needs rows.

Agency 070 without California

The Department of Homeland Security hub drops the CA filter and will not equal $34,056,334,738.25. The California hub drops 070 and includes 069, 086, and every other awarding agency tagged to CA. Overlay /states/ca/agencies/070/ is the both-keys table for 4,171 awards.

The architecture is simple. One hub is the agency without geography. One hub is the geography without this agency. One overlay is both. $34,056,334,738.25 and 4,171 belong to the overlay. The hubs answer different questions.

Questions

How much has DHS obligated in California?
USAspending records $34,056,334,738.25 in obligations for agency 070 with California place of performance, on 4,171 awards. That is the DHS–California join only. The pair is awarding agency 070 (Department of Homeland Security) and place-of-performance California. It is not Department of Homeland Security nationwide and not California from every awarding agency.
Does this include DOT or HUD in California?
No. Those joins use agencies 069 and 086. This page is Department of Homeland Security 070: $34,056,334,738.25 on 4,171 awards. Only place-of-performance California plus awarding agency 070 (Department of Homeland Security) enter $34,056,334,738.25. Adjacent state codes are other filters, if they exist as ties at all.
What is the average award?
About $8.17 million ($34,056,334,738.25 ÷ 4,171). The average mixes award types and is not a typical grant or contract. That ratio uses only $34,056,334,738.25 and 4,171 from the packet. A mean hides mix: a few large instruments can sit beside many smaller ones.
