Department of Justice in North Carolina

Justice awards tagged to North Carolina

This page is a join of two USAspending.gov fields: awarding agency Department of Justice (code 015) and place-of-performance North Carolina. The extract sums to $1,166,625,307.75 on 2,602 awards. Those facts describe a coding intersection. They do not show that Department of Justice spending caused North Carolina outcomes, or that North Carolina caused the federal award book.

The pair is not a North Carolina crime ranking or a count of federal inmates. Correlation of an agency label with a state code is not causation. Place-of-performance can follow a U.S. Attorney’s office, a detention site, a grant recipient, or a contractor. Work tagged to North Carolina can involve parties elsewhere, and North Carolina work can be coded to another state.

FBI Uniform Crime Reports, state court caseloads, and prison-population surveys are other series. Mixing any of those series with $1,166,625,307.75 leaves the USAspending award file. The 2,602 figure counts award records, including modifications present in the extract, not unique people, firms, or facilities.

Twenty-six hundred rows under $1.17 billion

Two thousand six hundred two awards under a $1.17 billion book is a midsize justice tape. Dividing $1,166,625,307.75 by 2,602 awards yields an implied mean near $448,357. That quotient is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical award size and not a median. A few large vehicles can pull the average while many smaller rows sit below it.

Volume and dollars are different columns. Cite both 2,602 and $1,166,625,307.75. USAspending.gov is the source. SpendingVault does not recast $448,357 as a product schedule or a beneficiary payment.
