Key figures
- DHS in Kansas: $941,709,268.43 across 266 USAspending awards.
- Implied mean about $3,540,260.41 per record — a packet quotient, not a typical project.
- Agency 070 × KS is not a measure of border stations, unique FEMA disasters, or a census of TSA checkpoints.
- Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.
- Kansas federal spending and Department of Homeland Security are parents, not amounts to add into $941,709,268.43.
What the DHS–Kansas join is
Department of Homeland Security as awarding agency, Kansas as place-of-performance: 266 records summing to $941,709,268.43. A Department of Homeland Security award coded outside KS is out. An award in Kansas from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Kansas (KS) excludes Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Colorado. A Kansas City, Missouri-coded award is Missouri even if the metro story sounds similar.
Two hundred sixty-six awards sit behind $941,709,268.43. That row count can mix large instruments with smaller modifications. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 266 as 266 unique border stations, unique FEMA disasters, or a census of TSA checkpoints. The overlay Department of Homeland Security in Kansas is the both-keys table. Kansas federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Homeland Security is the agency book without an KS filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
Wichita, Topeka, and Kansas City, Kansas share one KS stamp. FEMA, CBP, TSA, and other DHS components can share awarding-agency 070 without a published bureau pie. Correlation is not causation: Kansas did not cause $941,709,268.43 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 070 × KS only.
Not a border-station or disaster census
$941,709,268.43 does not measure border stations, unique FEMA disasters, or a census of TSA checkpoints. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 070 and an KS place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 266 awards as a census of border stations, unique FEMA disasters, or a census of TSA checkpoints. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Kansas federal spending or Department of Homeland Security matched $941,709,268.43 and 266, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighbor-state DHS joins are other pairs, not addends. Dividing $941,709,268.43 by 266 yields about $3,540,260.41 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical DHS line and not a published median.
