HUD awards tagged to Maine

Department of Housing and Urban Development as awarding agency, Maine as place-of-performance: 3,406 records summing to $1,602,478,165.03. A Department of Housing and Urban Development award coded outside ME is out. An award in Maine from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Maine (ME) excludes New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Vermont. A Manchester-coded award is New Hampshire.

Three thousand four hundred six awards is a moderate HUD book: thicker than a thin Energy cell, thinner than a 90,000-row HUD flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 3,406 as 3,406 unique vouchers, unique public housing authorities, or home prices. The overlay Department of Housing and Urban Development in Maine is the both-keys table. Maine federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Housing and Urban Development is the agency book without an ME filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

CDBG, vouchers, and public-housing instruments can share 086. Portland versus rural PHA folklore is unpublished. Correlation is not causation: Maine did not cause $1,602,478,165.03 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 086 × ME only.

Not rents, vacancies, or unique PHAs

$1,602,478,165.03 does not measure vouchers, unique public housing authorities, or home prices. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 086 and an ME place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 3,406 awards as a census of vouchers, unique public housing authorities, or home prices. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Maine federal spending or Department of Housing and Urban Development matched $1,602,478,165.03 and 3,406, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Vermont HUD joins are other pairs, not addends.
