Key figures
- Justice in Nevada: $818,192,542.89 across 566 USAspending awards.
- Implied mean about $1,445,569.86 per record — a packet quotient, not a typical project.
- Agency 015 × NV is not a measure of unique courts, unique prisons, or a census of U.S. Attorney offices.
- Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.
- Nevada federal spending and Department of Justice are parents, not amounts to add into $818,192,542.89.
What the Justice–Nevada join is
Department of Justice as awarding agency, Nevada as place-of-performance: 566 records summing to $818,192,542.89. A Department of Justice award coded outside NV is out. An award in Nevada from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Nevada (NV) excludes California, Arizona, Utah, Oregon, and Idaho. A South Lake Tahoe-coded award is California even if the basin story sounds similar.
Five hundred sixty-six awards sit behind $818,192,542.89. That row count can mix large instruments with smaller modifications. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 566 as 566 unique unique courts, unique prisons, or a census of U.S. Attorney offices. The overlay Department of Justice in Nevada is the both-keys table. Nevada federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Justice is the agency book without an NV filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
Las Vegas, Reno, and Carson City share one NV stamp. DOJ components can share awarding-agency 015 without a published bureau pie. Correlation is not causation: Nevada did not cause $818,192,542.89 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 015 × NV only.
566 actions are not 566 courts
$818,192,542.89 does not measure unique courts, unique prisons, or a census of U.S. Attorney offices. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 015 and an NV place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 566 awards as a census of unique courts, unique prisons, or a census of U.S. Attorney offices. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Nevada federal spending or Department of Justice matched $818,192,542.89 and 566, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighbor-state Justice joins are other pairs, not addends. Dividing $818,192,542.89 by 566 yields about $1,445,569.86 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical Justice line and not a published median.
