The Department of Education shows $5,536,341,867.03 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Wisconsin, across 1,905 awards. Awarding-agency 091 and Wisconsin (WI) are the pair. One thousand nine hundred five awards sits in the Education mid-band: more than a thousand-row file, fewer than a HUD assistance flood. The implied mean is about $2.91 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 Wisconsin

Department of Education as awarding agency, Wisconsin as place-of-performance: 1,905 records summing to $5,536,341,867.03. A Department of Education award coded outside WI is out. An award in Wisconsin from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Wisconsin (WI) excludes Minnesota, Illinois, Iowa, and Michigan. A Duluth-coded award is Minnesota.

One thousand nine hundred five awards sits in the Education mid-band: more than a thousand-row file, fewer than a HUD assistance flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 1,905 as 1,905 unique enrollment, unique districts, or named universities. The overlay Department of Education in Wisconsin is the both-keys table. Wisconsin federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Education is the agency book without a WI filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Milwaukee, Madison, and CESA regions are unpublished. $5,536,341,867.03 is 091 × WI only. Correlation is not causation: Wisconsin did not “cause” $5,536,341,867.03 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 091 × WI only.

Not a Milwaukee or Madison report card

$5,536,341,867.03 does not measure enrollment, unique districts, or named universities. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 091 and a WI place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 1,905 awards as a census of enrollment, unique districts, or named universities. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Wisconsin federal spending or Department of Education matched $5,536,341,867.03 and 1,905, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Minnesota, Illinois, and Michigan Education joins are other pairs, not addends.
