Department of Housing and Urban Development federal obligations in Florida

HUD and Florida as a high-count pair

Two hundred seventy-six thousand four hundred two awards is the distinctive fact on this page. The dollar total of $15,012,144,825 is large in absolute terms, yet the row count is so high that the mean falls near $54,313. That pattern is typical of assistance-heavy HUD aggregates: many records, each smaller than a major procurement. The facts still do not name programs. Housing Choice, public housing, or disaster recovery would be guesses.

The join is agency 086 plus Florida place of performance. It is not a housing-shortage index, not a rent ranking, and not a count of households. 276,402 is an award-record count in USAspending’s aggregate, which can include renewals and multiple instruments per property or recipient.

Florida’s size and storm history make it tempting to read 276,402 awards as a disaster ledger. The packet has no disaster flag and no year. $15,012,144,825 is the full agency 086 and Florida obligation total in the aggregate, storm years and ordinary years together if both are present, unseparated. Treat the count as volume, not as a hurricane chronology.

Awarding agency 086

Department of Housing and Urban Development nationwide is larger than this Florida cell. $15,012,144,825 is only the FL geography for agency 086. Other states’ HUD ties — Massachusetts, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New Jersey in this same batch — are separate filters with their own award counts.

The overlay /states/fl/agencies/086/ is the table that should match 276,402 awards and $15,012,144,825 in obligations. This narrative does not add counties or metro areas; those dimensions are absent from the facts.

Florida place of performance

State FL is the geography tag. Miami-Dade, the Gulf Coast, and inland counties can all sit inside the same $15,012,144,825 total. The join does not allocate by county or by hurricane year. Inventing a disaster-year split would violate the packet.

Florida federal spending is the parent state hub. HUD is one awarding agency there. Transportation, Education, and others are not included in these 276,402 HUD awards.

Reading a $54,313 mean

A mean near $54,313 says the cell is assistance-shaped relative to NASA or Treasury cells whose means run into the tens of millions. It does not say every Florida HUD award is $54,313. Outliers in both directions are invisible without a distribution. Median is not provided.

Obligations of $15,012,144,825 are commitments. Housing assistance often obligates an annual amount that pays out over the performance period. Treating the total as cash already in Florida landlords’ accounts would confuse obligations with outlays.

What the pair does not measure

This join does not score Florida’s housing market, does not count people housed, and does not claim HUD spending caused population change. Correlation between a large state and a large assistance agency is expected. It is not a finding about policy success. Campaign finance is a different dataset and is not used here.

Florida’s 276,402 rows can include renewals, amendments, and multiple instruments per property. Collapsing that count into “276,402 households helped” would over-read the aggregate. $15,012,144,825 remains an obligation sum. It is not a waitlist statistic and not a rent index.

Where the Florida HUD table sits

Department of Housing and Urban Development in Florida is the overlay for agency 086 and state FL. Florida federal spending is the statewide parent. Department of Housing and Urban Development is the national 086 hub. All spending ties catalogs other pairs. Those four links are how a reader keeps HUD’s 276,402 awards from being mistaken for every federal dollar in Florida.

Assistance-shaped tables invite people to divide dollars by population and call the result a benefit per resident. Population is not in the facts, so that division is not performed here. The mean of about $54,313 is dollars per award record, not dollars per person, per unit, or per month. No county, disaster year, or program name is supplied. The join records co-occurrence of agency 086 and Florida. It does not score the housing market.

Questions

How much HUD funding is obligated in Florida?

USAspending records $15,012,144,825 in Department of Housing and Urban Development (agency 086) obligations with Florida place of performance, across 276,402 awards. That is an obligation aggregate, not an outlay total.

Why are there 276,402 HUD awards in Florida?

The aggregate counts 276,402 award records for agency 086 and Florida. HUD assistance often produces many rows. The facts do not split programs or say how many unique recipients those rows represent.

Is the typical Florida HUD award about $54,000?

The mean is about $54,313 ($15,012,144,825 ÷ 276,402). That is not a median and not a rent voucher amount. Individual awards can be much smaller or larger.

Does this include hurricane recovery?

The packet does not break out disaster programs or years. $15,012,144,825 is the full agency 086 and Florida obligation total in the aggregate, without a program filter.
