Department of Housing and Urban Development federal obligations in Pennsylvania

A high-count HUD join

Ninety-six thousand three hundred eighty-five awards is among the larger row counts in this agency–state set. Dividing $8,549,429,796.34 by that count produces a mean near $88,701. Assistance-style HUD files often look like this: many records, modest mean. The packet still does not name vouchers, public housing, or community development as dollar shares.

96,385 is not a household count, not a unit count, and not a landlord count. It is an award-record count that can include renewals and multiple instruments per recipient.

Ninety-six thousand three hundred eighty-five Pennsylvania HUD records are enough volume that a mean near $88,701 can hide both very small rows and large ones. The packet has no distribution. $8,549,429,796.34 is the sum. It is not a typical payment, and it is not Philadelphia-only.

Awarding agency 086

The Department of Housing and Urban Development hub is nationwide. Pennsylvania’s $8,549,429,796.34 is the PA geography only. Overlay /states/pa/agencies/086/ is the filtered table that should match 96,385 awards.

This copy does not name Philadelphia or Pittsburgh housing authorities as dollar amounts. Metro shares are not in the facts.

Pennsylvania place of performance

PA as a tag can include the southeast, the west, and the rest of the Commonwealth in one $8,549,429,796.34 bucket. No county split is provided. The Pennsylvania federal spending hub is the parent for all awarding agencies, including Transportation and EPA cells that look nothing like this row count.

Place of performance follows the USAspending geography field. An administrator based in another state can appear here if the award lists Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania federal spending lists HUD beside Transportation and EPA. Those other cells have a few thousand or a few hundred awards, not 96,385. Different shapes, different missions. $8,549,429,796.34 remains the 086 filter. It does not complete the state’s federal picture by itself.

Obligations, not monthly rent

Housing assistance often obligates an annual or multi-year amount that pays out over time. $8,549,429,796.34 is the obligation sum. Outlays are not provided. Treating the mean of about $88,701 as a typical monthly rent payment would misread the unit of analysis — that figure is dollars per award record, not dollars per month or per household.

No fiscal year is in the facts. The total is not labeled as a single year of housing aid.

Pennsylvania HUD’s 96,385 awards and $8,549,429,796.34 are volume. Volume is not 96,385 households. The mean near $88,701 is per record, not monthly rent. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh are unpublished shares. Transportation and EPA Pennsylvania cells look nothing like 96,385 rows because they are different missions. This page isolates 086.
