Department of Housing and Urban Development federal obligations in Oklahoma

HUD awards tagged to Oklahoma

Department of Housing and Urban Development as awarding agency, Oklahoma as place-of-performance: 26,475 records summing to $3,179,697,311.56. A Department of Housing and Urban Development award coded outside OK is out. An award in Oklahoma from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Oklahoma (OK) excludes Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, and New Mexico. A Fort Smith-coded award is Arkansas.

Twenty-six thousand four hundred seventy-five awards is a thick HUD file. Recurring assistance can thicken a list without each row being a new building. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 26,475 as 26,475 unique housing units, unique PHAs, or voucher households. The overlay Department of Housing and Urban Development in Oklahoma is the both-keys table. Oklahoma federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Housing and Urban Development is the agency book without an OK filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Oklahoma City and Tulsa are unpublished. Do not treat 26,475 as two metro housing lists glued together. Correlation is not causation: Oklahoma did not “cause” $3,179,697,311.56 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 086 × OK only.

26,475 rows are not 26,475 units

$3,179,697,311.56 does not measure housing units, unique PHAs, or voucher households. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 086 and an OK place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 26,475 awards as a census of housing units, unique PHAs, or voucher households. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Oklahoma federal spending or Department of Housing and Urban Development matched $3,179,697,311.56 and 26,475, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Texas, Arkansas, and Kansas HUD joins are other pairs, not addends.

Oklahoma, not a two-city HUD rollup

Place of performance OK is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Oklahoma (OK) excludes Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, and New Mexico. A Fort Smith-coded award is Arkansas. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

Oklahoma City and Tulsa are unpublished. Do not treat 26,475 as two metro housing lists glued together. This packet does not split $3,179,697,311.56 by city, county, or named facility. 26,475 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Thick assistance still records obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $3,179,697,311.56 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Oklahoma confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Oklahoma’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 26,475-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $3,179,697,311.56.

Citing HUD in Oklahoma

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Housing and Urban Development (agency 086) obligated $3,179,697,311.56 on 26,475 awards coded to Oklahoma. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as housing units, unique PHAs, or voucher households.

Prefer Department of Housing and Urban Development in Oklahoma if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Oklahoma federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to OK. Department of Housing and Urban Development is the 086 parent without the OK filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $3,179,697,311.56.

A usable footnote names Department of Housing and Urban Development, Oklahoma, $3,179,697,311.56, and 26,475. The compact headline $3.18 billion is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $120,102 is $3,179,697,311.56 divided by 26,475. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
