Department of Labor in Georgia

Labor awards tagged to Georgia

Department of Labor as awarding agency, Georgia as place-of-performance: 217 records summing to $1,513,215,113.85. A Department of Labor award coded outside GA is out. An award in Georgia from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Georgia (GA) excludes Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, and North Carolina. A Jacksonville-coded award is Florida even if a worker commutes.

Two hundred seventeen records against $1,513,215,113.85 is a thin, high-mean Labor file: few rows, large dollars. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 217 as 217 unique jobs created, unemployment rates, or unique workers. The overlay Department of Labor in Georgia is the both-keys table. Georgia federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Labor is the agency book without a GA filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Atlanta workforce boards are unpublished. Do not assign 217 awards to a named local area. Correlation is not causation: Georgia did not cause $1,513,215,113.85 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 1601 × GA only.

Unemployment rates are a different series

$1,513,215,113.85 does not measure jobs created, unemployment rates, or unique workers. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 1601 and a GA place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 217 awards as a census of jobs created, unemployment rates, or unique workers. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Georgia federal spending or Department of Labor matched $1,513,215,113.85 and 217, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Florida, Alabama, and South Carolina Labor joins are other pairs, not addends.
