Indian Housing Block Grants federal obligations in Alaska

Sixty-five NAHASDA records, one Alaska cell

This tie keeps USAspending assistance where CFDA 14.867 meets Alaska place of performance. The dollar book is $1,756,598,645.02. The award count is 65. Alaska’s tribal housing network includes regional housing authorities and village-level entities; sixty-five records do not equal 65 villages. Continuations, modifications, and multi-year formula shares can share the tape.

The join does not prove that Alaska’s climate, construction-cost premium, or remote logistics caused $1,756,598,645.02. Those are other series. This packet does not split new construction from weatherization. Correlation is not causation.

A reader who treats the cell as Alaska’s full HUD obligation book has left the CFDA-by-state definition. The 65 figure is a record count, not a unit count and not a village count.

More awards than Oklahoma’s 14.867 tape, similar dollars

Sixty-five awards under $1,756,598,645.02 imply a mean near $27,024,595 per award. That average is lower than a thicker-dollar, thinner-tape housing cell would produce, because the same catalog line can post more prime records in Alaska. The packet has no median and no regional-authority share.

Cite both columns without converting the mean into a typical house cost in a roadless community. USAspending.gov is the source; SpendingVault does not recast $27,024,595 as a unit price.

Alaska’s 14.867 cell versus the statewide stack

Alaska’s state hub stacks every CFDA with performance coded to the state. Indian Housing Block Grants is one HUD line. $1,756,598,645.02 is not Alaska’s all-program total. The nationwide CFDA 14.867 page includes every state, so it is not this cell.

Place-of-performance for a regional housing authority can sit on Alaska even when villages are scattered across a huge service area. This packet does not reallocate units to census areas. Read the overlay as a coding view of 65 awards.

Obligations versus construction seasons

The $1,756,598,645.02 figure is an obligation sum. Short construction seasons can push outlays years past the obligation date. SpendingVault does not publish a 14.867-in-Alaska outlay total in this packet. Mixing overcrowding or energy-cost statistics with this award file leaves the USAspending series.

Cite the join as CFDA 14.867 × Alaska, $1,756,598,645.02, 65 awards, obligations only.

Where the structured rows live

The Alaska × Indian Housing Block Grants overlay is the table view. Recipient slices on that hub still sum toward $1,756,598,645.02 on 65 awards. The Alaska spending page and the CFDA 14.867 program page are the parents. The Alaska programs index and the ties index list other pairs.

None of those links convert the cell into a unit count or into outlays this packet omits.

What Alaska Indian housing is not

Indian Housing Block Grants in Alaska are not a ranking of regional corporations and not a count of village units. The $1,756,598,645.02 figure is the CFDA 14.867 × Alaska cell. Sixty-five awards describe NAHASDA filing across regional authorities and related entities, not 65 villages. Short construction seasons can push outlays years past the obligation date; that lag is not in this packet as an outlay total.

A thicker award tape than Oklahoma’s 14.867 cell does not mean Alaska built more houses. It means more prime records carry the catalog number and the Alaska code. Cite 14.867 and Alaska together, keep the obligation label, and keep the 65-award count. Later bulk files can revise both dollars and the record count.

Alaska’s Indian Housing Block Grant cell also does not include village-level unit inventories, barge-season logistics costs, or regional-corporation housing plans. Those series live with HUD and regional housing authorities. SpendingVault cites USAspending.gov obligations only: CFDA 14.867 × Alaska, $1,756,598,645.02, 65 awards. If a later extract revises the 65-row tape, the implied mean near $27,024,595 moves with it. Quote the packet facts and the overlay path rather than a village story.

Keep both sides of the join in any citation: Indian Housing Block Grants and Alaska, obligations only, 65 awards on $1,756,598,645.02.
