The Department of Education shows $4,158,589,141.06 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Oregon, across 1,564 awards. Awarding-agency 091 and Oregon (OR) are the pair. One thousand five hundred sixty-four records is a typical Education formula-file size: hundreds of awards, not hundreds of thousands. The implied mean is about $2.66 million per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical project. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.

Education awards tagged to Oregon

Department of Education as awarding agency, Oregon as place-of-performance: 1,564 records summing to $4,158,589,141.06. A Department of Education award coded outside OR is out. An award in Oregon from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Oregon (OR) excludes Washington, California, Idaho, and Nevada. A Vancouver, Washington-coded award is WA even if a student commutes.

One thousand five hundred sixty-four records is a typical Education formula-file size: hundreds of awards, not hundreds of thousands. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 1,564 as 1,564 unique enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. The overlay Department of Education in Oregon is the both-keys table. Oregon federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Education is the agency book without an OR filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This packet does not name Title I, IDEA, or Pell as line items inside $4,158,589,141.06. Correlation is not causation: Oregon did not “cause” $4,158,589,141.06 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 091 × OR only.

Not a Portland-versus-rural report card

$4,158,589,141.06 does not measure enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 091 and an OR place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 1,564 awards as a census of enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Oregon federal spending or Department of Education matched $4,158,589,141.06 and 1,564, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Washington, California, and Idaho Education joins are other pairs, not addends.
