  • The pair is awarding-agency 1601 × place-of-performance SC.
  • Amounts are obligations, not outlays; no fiscal year is in this packet.
  • The implied mean near $4,985,471.18 is $608,227,484 divided by 122, not a typical award.

Awarding-agency 1601 meeting South Carolina

Department of Labor as awarding agency, South Carolina as place-of-performance: 122 records summing to $608,227,484. A Department of Labor award coded outside SC is out. An award in South Carolina from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. South Carolina (SC) excludes North Carolina and Georgia. A Charleston-coded award with a Georgia place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

122 awards against $608,227,484 is a 122-award Labor file on awarding-agency 1601, thin on rows against a large dollar total. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 122 as 122 unique jobs created, named job centers, or unemployment-insurance claims. Department of Labor in South Carolina is the both-keys table. South Carolina federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Labor is the agency book without an SC filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Code 1601 is the awarding-agency key on this overlay. Workforce-board folklore is unpublished. Do not invent named One-Stop centers as extra dollars. Correlation is not causation: South Carolina did not cause $608,227,484 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 1601 × SC only.

Labor folklore is not a jobs census

$608,227,484 does not measure jobs created, named job centers, or unemployment-insurance claims. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 1601 and an SC place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 122 awards as a census of jobs created, named job centers, or unemployment-insurance claims. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If South Carolina federal spending or Department of Labor matched $608,227,484 and 122, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state Labor joins are other pairs, not addends.
