Small Business Administration (073) federal obligations in Maryland

Awarding-agency 073 meeting Maryland

Small Business Administration as awarding agency, Maryland as place-of-performance: 6,413 records summing to $106,633,274.34. A Small Business Administration award coded outside MD is out. An award in Maryland from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Maryland (MD) excludes Virginia, the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. A District of Columbia-coded award is DC even if the borrower sits in Maryland.

Six thousand four hundred thirteen awards against $106,633,274.34 is a mid-thick action file: far more rows than a 55-award SEC cell, far fewer than California’s 47,838-row 073 book. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 6,413 as 6,413 unique small businesses, named borrowers, or a firm census. Small Business Administration in Maryland is the both-keys table. Maryland federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Small Business Administration is the agency book without an MD filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This slug is the Maryland × agency-073 duplicate. Code 073 is the disambiguator. Named borrowers are unpublished. Do not fold DC-coded awards into this MD cell. This slug is the Maryland × agency-073 duplicate. Code 073 belongs in the title and heading. Shared display names do not merge 073 with another awarding code that uses the same agency label. Correlation is not causation: Maryland did not cause $106,633,274.34 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 073 × MD only.

Six thousand rows are not unique firms

$106,633,274.34 does not measure unique small businesses, named borrowers, or a firm census. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 073 and an MD place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 6,413 awards as a census of unique small businesses, named borrowers, or a firm census. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Maryland federal spending or Small Business Administration matched $106,633,274.34 and 6,413, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Virginia, District of Columbia, and Pennsylvania SBA 073 joins are other pairs, not addends.

Maryland, not a DC-suburb borrower map

Place of performance MD is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Maryland (MD) excludes Virginia, the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. A District of Columbia-coded award is DC even if the borrower sits in Maryland. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $106,633,274.34 by city, county, or named facility. 6,413 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

A mid-thick 073 file still records obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $106,633,274.34 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Maryland confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Maryland’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 6,413-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 $106,633,274.34.

Citing SBA 073 × Maryland

Cite USAspending.gov: Small Business Administration (agency 073) obligated $106,633,274.34 on 6,413 awards coded to Maryland. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as unique small businesses, named borrowers, or a firm census.

Prefer Small Business Administration in Maryland if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Maryland federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to MD. Small Business Administration is the 073 parent without the MD filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $106,633,274.34.

A usable footnote names Small Business Administration, Maryland, $106,633,274.34, and 6,413. The compact headline $106.6M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $16,628 is $106,633,274.34 divided by 6,413. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system. Borrower names, loan programs, and county shares are unpublished on this packet.
