Retirement insurance meeting Colorado in the award file
The program key is CFDA 96.002. The geography key is Colorado (CO). Their overlap is $48,222,246,963 and 3,685 records. A 96.002 award tagged to Utah or Wyoming is out of this cell. A Colorado award under disability insurance (96.001) or survivors insurance (96.004) is a different join, even though those catalog numbers also sit in the SSA family. This page does not add those siblings to the $48,222,246,963.
Three thousand six hundred eighty-five awards against $48,222,246,963 produces a mean of about $13,086,091 per record. That mean is a quotient of packet facts, not a typical monthly benefit and not a typical Colorado retiree’s annual check. Large assistance vehicles and modifications can dominate dollars while the row count stays in the thousands rather than in the millions of people.
Colorado did not cause the $48,222,246,963 by appearing as a state code, and SSA did not “award the state” in a sense this extract can prove. Matching a CFDA to a state is not causation. The overlay Social Security Retirement Insurance in Colorado is the live table for the same pair.
What CFDA 96.002 is on this page—and what SSA publications are not
Every dollar in the $48,222,246,963 carries the retirement-insurance catalog title. CFDA 96.002 is the national program hub with the Colorado filter removed. This packet does not include a national total, so Colorado is not given a share of a U.S. figure. SSA statistical supplements that count beneficiaries by state are a different series; they are not the 3,685 USAspending.gov rows.
Trust Fund ratios, average monthly benefits, and COLA announcements live in other SSA products. Placing any of those next to $48,222,246,963 would mix files. This page stays with the award aggregate.
