Railroad retirement insurance often posts as a dense file of many assistance records rather than one statewide block. The join does not name recipients, split Cook County and downstate, or count beneficiaries, claims, or railroads. Packet facts stop at $2,136,013,737.95, 10,933 awards, IL, and 57.001. Correlation is not causation.

57.001 is not Social Security or PBGC termination insurance in Illinois

Social Security OASDI catalogs and Pension Plan Termination Insurance (CFDA 86.001) sit on other Catalog numbers. Mixing those dollars into $2,136,013,737.95 would invent a broader total than this 57.001 × IL cell contains. Facts available: Illinois, CFDA 57.001, $2,136,013,737.95, 10,933 awards. Recipient names, subawards, and beneficiary, claim, or railroad counts are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Social Insurance For Railroad Workers, not a ranking of Illinois outcomes. Dividing $2,136,013,737.95 by 10,933 yields about $195,373 per award—a railroad-retirement insurance instrument, not a typical monthly annuity. Unique recipients are unpublished. 10,933 is not a count of beneficiaries, claims, or railroads.

Illinois geography on the Railroad Worker Insurance tag

IL is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Chicago, Springfield, or Peoria can share the tag. Awards coded to Indiana, Wisconsin, Missouri, Iowa, or Kentucky stay outside $2,136,013,737.95 even when a metro, watershed, or service area approaches the border. Chicago-hub and downstate tags collapse into one IL code. The code does not convert $2.14 billion into a beneficiary map.

Illinois federal spending is the all-program parent. 57.001 is one row on Illinois programs. $2.14 billion is not the state's complete federal footprint. Open Social Insurance For Railroad Workers in Illinois for the filtered table, CFDA 57.001 for 57.001 without a Illinois filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $2,136,013,737.95.

Reading 10,933 awards under $2.14 billion

$2,136,013,737.95 ÷ 10,933 is about $195,373 per award. That average is a railroad-retirement insurance instrument, not a typical monthly annuity. It is not a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 10,933 as a record count in an aggregate, not as 10,933 finished insurance records.

USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $2,136,013,737.95 is the net total supplied in the facts. Without a transaction register on this page, you cannot see how many of the 10,933 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections. Later ingests can restate $2,136,013,737.95 without changing the join key of 57.001 and IL.
