Department of Education obligations in Arizona 4th District (AZ-04)
Awarding agency 091 and Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) meet at $2,330,756,479.81 in USAspending.gov obligations, spread across 233 awards. Two hundred thirty-three Education-coded awards cover about eleven percent of AZ-04's district obligation total, a compact Education file with a large implied mean and no named-school list. That pair is Department of Education and Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) — not Arizona's entire federal inflow, not Department of Education nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 10.9% of this district's published obligation total ($21,319,000,697.67). Implied average obligation is about $10,003,246.69 ($2,330,756,479.81 ÷ 233). Correlation is not causation.

Reading agency 091 inside AZ-04
Awarding agency 091 and congressional district AZ-04 meet here. $2,330,756,479.81 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Education's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Arizona 4th District (AZ-04), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split Education programs or contract versus assistance instruments. 233 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a student-aid caseload, a school census, or a named-grantee file.
This page reports education awarding activity USAspending tagged to this district. The headline $2,330,756,479.81 sits beside a district-wide obligation total of $21,319,000,697.67; the 10.9% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of Arizona districts as winners or losers. District 90 and 98 placeholders are omitted from this harvest. Obligations are not outlays.
Agency 091 without inventing a component pie
USAspending labels awarding agency 091 as Department of Education. That code produced $2,330,756,479.81 when crossed with Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) place of performance. The agency-wide 091 hub does not require AZ-04 geography. The district hub does not require Education. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 233 awards. The packet does not split Education programs or contract versus assistance instruments.
Correlation is not causation: Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) did not cause $2,330,756,479.81 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 091 × AZ-04 only. This cell is not a student-aid caseload, a school census, or a named-grantee file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.
How Arizona 4th District is coded
Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list AZ-04 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Arizona districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 091. Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Arizona. Other Arizona districts are separate joins even when they reuse awarding-agency 091. Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) is a numbered place-of-performance geography inside Arizona. Other Arizona districts are not this join.
Arizona federal spending shows how agency 091 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same state extract. $2,330,756,479.81 is one district-agency column, not the state table. This packet does not split Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different awarding-agency code stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Department of Education. The district-wide obligation total published here is $21,319,000,697.67; $2,330,756,479.81 is the Education slice of that denominator.
What the dollar figure is allowed to mean
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $2,330,756,479.81 is that kind of sum for Department of Education inside AZ-04 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same awarding-agency rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $2,330,756,479.81 as given.
Arizona's own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 233-row Education cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 233 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($10,003,246.69) is a concentration statistic, not a typical AZ-04 Education payment.
Parents of this tie: district, agency, state
Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Education (agency 091) obligated $2,330,756,479.81 on 233 awards coded to Arizona 4th District (AZ-04). Name Department of Education and Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) together. Keep the obligation word. If Arizona 4th District or Department of Education has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a student-aid caseload, a school census, or a named-grantee file. 10.9% of $21,319,000,697.67 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.
Keep Department of Education, Arizona 4th District (AZ-04), $2,330,756,479.81, and 233 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Department of Education is the 091 parent without a AZ-04 filter. Arizona federal spending is the Arizona parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with Education does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.
Limits of the AZ-04 × 091 snapshot
233 awards against a two-billion-dollar Education cell is a compact file. Do not invent campuses or contractors to explain the dollars. Other Education × district pages can show similar row counts and different district shares. Same agency 091, different geography. A large row count makes a program split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $10,003,246.69) and the district share (10.9% of $21,319,000,697.67) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Arizona 4th District and Department of Education if the live tables moved.
Do not rank Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) as more Education-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 091 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 091 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $2,330,756,479.81 and 233 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.
Questions

- USAspending.gov lists $2,330,756,479.81 in Department of Education obligations across 233 awards with place of performance in Arizona 4th District (AZ-04). Agency 091 × AZ-04 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Arizona's complete federal ledger. The cell is 10.9% of the district's published total ($21,319,000,697.67). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $10,003,246.69, a ratio of those two facts only.
- Does $2,330,756,479.81 include every Education program in AZ-04?
- The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup. The packet does not split Education programs or contract versus assistance instruments. $2,330,756,479.81 is the combined obligation sum for agency 091 inside AZ-04 coding. This page will not invent a program pie or name contractors. Open Department of Education and Arizona 4th District to inspect parent tables. 233 remains an action count, not a program count.
- Is $2,330,756,479.81 cash already paid in Arizona 4th District (AZ-04)?
- No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet's headline. Treating $2,330,756,479.81 as checks already cleared in Arizona 4th District (AZ-04) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 233 awards. Prefer the live district and agency hubs if the tables moved.
- Do FEC donations fund these Education awards in AZ-04?
- No. FEC receipts and USAspending obligations are different datasets. Sharing Arizona geography does not mean donations funded $2,330,756,479.81 in Arizona 4th District (AZ-04). This page reports USAspending.gov awarding-agency 091 crossed with place of performance AZ-04. It does not report campaign finance.
