USAspending.gov records $11,472,338,561.79 in Department of Housing and Urban Development obligations with place of performance in Massachusetts, across 15,005 awards. Awarding agency 086 and state MA define the join. Mean obligation is about $764,568 per award ($11,472,338,561.79 ÷ 15,005). Other HUD state cells with far more rows pull their averages down; concentrated agencies with a handful of awards sit at the other extreme. Those are different joins.

HUD and Massachusetts in one aggregate

Fifteen thousand five awards under $11,472,338,561.79 is a mid-volume HUD cell: fewer rows than the highest-count HUD states, more than a procurement-heavy agency with a few hundred awards. The mean near $764,568 reflects that middle position. It is still not a typical voucher payment.

The join does not count housing units, waitlists, or rents. 15,005 is an award-record count. Renewals and multiple instruments per recipient can inflate row counts without mapping one-to-one onto households.

Massachusetts housing authorities and private owners can both appear among 15,005 award records. The facts do not say in what proportion. $11,472,338,561.79 is the mixed total. Treating it as public-housing-only or voucher-only would invent a program share the packet does not contain.

Awarding agency 086

Department of Housing and Urban Development nationwide is the 086 hub. Massachusetts’s $11,472,338,561.79 is the MA geography only. Other New England states are not included unless their place-of-performance code is MA — which it is not.

Overlay /states/ma/agencies/086/ should match 15,005 awards. Program names are not in the facts. Public housing, vouchers, and community development are possible contents of a HUD table; they are not dollar shares on this page.
