USAspending.gov records $9,683,480,947.77 in Department of Defense obligations under awarding agency 097 with place of performance in Minnesota, across 64,142 awards. Minnesota’s DoD cell is a thick-file case in this slice: 64,142 awards against a $9.68 billion obligation sum. That arithmetic is a thick-file case: many rows against a large obligation sum, so the mean is pulled down by volume. The pair is Department of Defense and Minnesota — not Minnesota’s entire federal inflow and not cash already paid. Average obligation is about $150,969 ($9,683,480,947.77 ÷ 64,142).

  • Minnesota federal spending and Department of Defense are parents, not amounts to add into $9,683,480,947.77.

What the DoD–Minnesota join is

Awarding agency 097 and place-of-performance state MN meet here. $9,683,480,947.77 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Defense’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Minnesota, and not an outlay register. Military departments and defense agencies can roll up under awarding agency 097. This join does not split Army, Navy, Air Force, or other Defense components. 64,142 is a thick action file: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished.

Dividing $9,683,480,947.77 by 64,142 yields about $150,969 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line, and it is not a named base budget, not a contractor roster, and not a force-structure table. A second DoD slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Minnesota’s 097 cell as a synonym for every DoD account.

Open Department of Defense in Minnesota for the live filtered table, Minnesota federal spending for every awarding agency in the state extract, Department of Defense for agency 097 without a Minnesota filter, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $9,683,480,947.77.

Awarding agency 097 as the DoD side

USAspending labels awarding agency 097 as Department of Defense. That code produced $9,683,480,947.77 when crossed with Minnesota place of performance. The agency-wide 097 hub does not require MN geography. The Minnesota hub does not require DoD. Only the overlay applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 64,142 awards.

This page reports defense awarding activity that USAspending coded to Minnesota. Correlation is not causation: Minnesota did not “cause” $9,683,480,947.77 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 097 × MN only. Military departments and defense agencies can roll up under awarding agency 097. This join does not split Army, Navy, Air Force, or other Defense components.

Questions

How much DoD spending is coded to Minnesota?
USAspending.gov lists $9,683,480,947.77 in Department of Defense obligations across 64,142 Minnesota-coded awards. Agency 097 × MN is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Minnesota’s complete federal ledger. Department of Defense in Minnesota is the live overlay for this pair.

Does this total include every DoD program in Minnesota?

Is $9,683,480,947.77 cash already paid in Minnesota?
No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline.
