Federal Communications Commission in New York

A thick FCC file on New York

Federal Communications Commission as awarding agency, New York as place-of-performance: 10,426 records summing to $2,541,251,007.75. A Federal Communications Commission award coded outside NY is out. An award in New York from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. New York (NY) excludes New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont. A Newark-coded award is New Jersey.

Ten thousand four hundred twenty-six awards is a thick FCC action file. Volume can rise on recurring subsidy-style rows without each row being a new carrier. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 10,426 as 10,426 unique broadband subscribers, licenses, or named carriers. The overlay Federal Communications Commission in New York is the both-keys table. New York federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Federal Communications Commission is the agency book without an NY filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

New York City versus upstate folklore is not a packet split. The dollar total stays statewide under 027 × NY. Correlation is not causation: New York did not “cause” $2,541,251,007.75 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 027 × NY only.

Not a broadband-subscriber census

$2,541,251,007.75 does not measure broadband subscribers, licenses, or named carriers. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 027 and an NY place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 10,426 awards as a census of broadband subscribers, licenses, or named carriers. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If New York federal spending or Federal Communications Commission matched $2,541,251,007.75 and 10,426, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut FCC joins are other pairs, not addends.
