North Carolina geography in USAspending
North Carolina is state code NC. Performance in Durham County, a recipient in Mecklenburg County, and a record that only stamps NC can all feed $123,959,825,754.44. Awards tagged SC, VA, or TN stay on those ties. The join does not isolate the Triangle.
Statewide North Carolina federal spending is the parent. Agency 075 is one awarding agency there. $124.0 billion is not the state’s complete federal ledger.
Awards tagged SC, VA, TN, or GA stay on those ties even when a North Carolina health system operates across the line. Place of performance is the stored field. Geography remains a stamp, not a campus tour. NC-tagged HHS awards totaling $123,959,825,754.44 across 9,981 records do not isolate Durham, Chapel Hill, or Charlotte. Neighbor-state tags stay on neighbor ties. The $12.4 million mean is still dollars divided by rows, not a typical grant.
9,981 awards under $124.0 billion
Average obligation is about $12.4 million ($123,959,825,754.44 ÷ 9,981). That is below Texas HHS and above Massachusetts HHS. The mean is a ratio, not a typical grant.
Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $123,959,825,754.44 as given. Treat 9,981 as award records in the aggregate.
Nine thousand nine hundred eighty-one rows under $124.0 billion produce a $12.4 million mean. Report the ratio. Do not infer typical grant sizes from it.
Limits of the NC–HHS join
A shared state tag does not mean North Carolina selected these awards, and it does not mean HHS outlays equal $123,959,825,754.44 inside the state. FEC donations do not fund this cell. Correlation is not causation.
