CFDA 96.006 is titled SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME. Crossed with Massachusetts place of performance, obligations sum to $3,451,440,357 on 1,367 awards. The national SSI hub includes other states.

Only this intersection is reported here. $3,451,440,357 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of SSI recipients in Boston, Springfield, or Worcester.

1,367 awards is a thinner SSI book than North Carolina’s 96.006 cell, which means a higher mean per record. That is a reporting pattern, not a ranking of states. The join does not name SSA field offices, list beneficiaries, or count eligible people. Packet facts stop at $3,451,440,357, 1,367 awards, MA, and 96.006.

96.006 is not survivors insurance or SSDI

Social Security Survivors Insurance (CFDA 96.004) and disability insurance are different SSA catalogs. Mixing those dollars into $3,451,440,357 would invent a broader income-security total than this cell contains. Facts available: Massachusetts, CFDA 96.006, $3,451,440,357, 1,367 awards. Benefit formulas and caseload counts are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Supplemental Security Income, not a ranking of county poverty. Dividing $3,451,440,357 by 1,367 yields about $2,524,828 per award—a record-level ratio, not a typical monthly SSI check. Unique recipients are unpublished. 1,367 is not a count of households.
