Department of Labor in Florida

A thin Labor file on a Florida tag

Department of Labor as awarding agency, Florida as place-of-performance: 258 records summing to $2,241,068,866.19. A Department of Labor award coded outside FL is out. An award in Florida from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Florida (FL) excludes Georgia and Alabama. An Atlanta-coded award is GA even if a workforce office later serves a Florida ZIP. ETA, OSHA, and other Labor components are unpublished splits inside awarding agency 1601.

Two hundred fifty-eight awards against $2,241,068,866.19 is a thin, high-mean file. A handful of assistance vehicles can dominate the dollar total. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 258 as 258 unique unemployment claims, unique workers, or named Job Corps sites. The overlay Department of Labor in Florida is the both-keys table. Florida federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Labor is the agency book without an FL filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Miami, Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville are unpublished. Do not treat 258 as a list of unique Florida workers. Correlation is not causation: Florida did not “cause” $2,241,068,866.19 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 1601 × FL only.

Unemployment claims are a different series

$2,241,068,866.19 does not measure unemployment claims, unique workers, or named Job Corps sites. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 1601 and an FL place-of-performance tag. ETA, OSHA, and other Labor components are unpublished splits inside awarding agency 1601.

Do not treat 258 awards as a census of unemployment claims, unique workers, or named Job Corps sites. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Florida federal spending or Department of Labor matched $2,241,068,866.19 and 258, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Georgia and Alabama Labor joins are other pairs, not addends.
