Social Security Retirement Insurance in Texas

What the CFDA 96.002–Texas pair records

Two filters produce the headline. The program filter is Social Security Retirement Insurance, catalog number 96.002. The geography filter is Texas (TX) on the award’s place-of-performance field. Rows that fail either test sit outside $206,595,297,901 and outside the 18,988-award count. A Texas-coded award from another CFDA is not in this cell. A 96.002 award coded to Oklahoma or New Mexico is not in this cell. The join is only the overlapping slice of those two keys.

The pair is an accounting intersection, not a policy verdict. Texas did not “win” retirement insurance spending by sitting next to $206,595,297,901, and the program did not “choose Texas” in any sense this extract can prove. Matching a CFDA code to a state code is not causation. Readers who want the live table for the same pair should open the overlay Social Security Retirement Insurance in Texas rather than treating this prose as a second database.

Dividing $206,595,297,901 by 18,988 awards yields about $10,880,308 per record. That mean is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical monthly retirement check. Modifications, multi-year vehicles, and large assistance actions can each occupy one row while carrying a large share of the book. Do not treat 18,988 as a headcount of Texas beneficiaries, field offices, or ZIP codes. This packet publishes neither a recipient roster nor a county split.

Program 96.002 on the Texas side of the file

Social Security Retirement Insurance is the CFDA title on every row in this rollup. Catalog number 96.002 is the identifier SpendingVault uses on the national program hub. The $206,595,297,901 figure is an obligation sum for that program inside Texas coding, not a national 96.002 total and not an SSA statistical publication. Benefit-program narratives that live in SSA’s own tables—beneficiary counts, average monthly benefits, trust-fund ratios—are a different series. This page does not import them.

Eighteen thousand nine hundred eighty-eight awards is a record count. Repeat actions and modifications can add rows without adding unique people. This packet does not publish a unique-recipient count, so none is estimated. Open CFDA 96.002 for the program without a state filter and Texas federal spending for the statewide book that includes every CFDA, not only 96.002. Texas programs lists sibling catalog cells in the same geography.
