New York × 14.871 is a voucher join, not a unit census
This page pairs CFDA 14.871, SECTION 8 HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHERS, with New York place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $10,782,557,842 on 6,936 awards. The join is HUD's Housing Choice Voucher listing crossed with a New York location field, not New York's entire HUD book and not a count of voucher households or units. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking, and not a claim that 6,936 awards equal that many voucher households, housing units, or named PHAs.
Public housing operating funds, project-based Section 8, and HOME sit on other CFDA numbers unless they also carry 14.871. Correlation between this obligation sum and local need statistics is not causation. Those statistics are not in the packet. New York (NY) excludes New Jersey and Connecticut. A Newark PHA award is New Jersey, not this cell. Place of performance as New York locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $10,782,557,842 in the state treasury.
6,936 HUD rows behind a $10.78 billion book
Mean obligation is about $1.55 million if $10,782,557,842 were divided evenly across 6,936 lines. That ratio is a quotient of two packet facts, not a published typical award. Six thousand nine hundred thirty-six records is a thick HUD assistance file. PHA names and unit counts are unpublished. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations. It is not a census of voucher households, housing units, or named PHAs.
Six thousand nine hundred thirty-six awards are scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers in New York for the stored table. NYCHA, suburban PHAs, and upstate authorities are unpublished splits. Do not treat 6,936 as a building inventory. The $10,782,557,842 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.
Voucher obligations are not HAP already paid to landlords
An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. The $10,782,557,842 headline is the obligation sum, not housing-assistance payments already sent to landlords. No fiscal year is attached in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Citing the figure as cash already sent in New York confuses two USAspending concepts.
Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. New York's own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 6,936-award USAspending file leaves this series. Keep the obligation label on $10,782,557,842. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell.
What the New York 14.871 table omits
The extract has no roster of voucher households, housing units, or named PHAs. Facts remain $10,782,557,842, 6,936 awards, CFDA 14.871, and New York. This page will not invent a county league table. Sibling 14.871 joins in other states are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score. New York (NY) excludes New Jersey and Connecticut. A Newark PHA award is New Jersey, not this cell.

Mixing those shelves would invent a share of New York spending the packet never computed. The $10,782,557,842 figure is the tagged pair only.
