Social Security Disability Insurance in Arkansas 4th (AR-04)
The SSDI × AR-04 cell on USAspending.gov is $647,578,056 in obligations across 588 awards. Five hundred eighty-eight SSDI awards equal about eight and a half percent of AR-04’s district obligation total, the thickest Arkansas SSDI file on this slice. That pair is Social Security Disability Insurance and Arkansas 4th District (AR-04) — not Arkansas’s entire federal inflow, not Social Security Disability Insurance nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 8.5% of this district’s published obligation total ($7,630,161,345.60). Implied average obligation is about $1,101,323.22 ($647,578,056 ÷ 588). Correlation is not causation.

A place-of-performance join: SSDI × AR-04
CFDA 96.001 and congressional district AR-04 meet here. $647,578,056 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Social Security Disability Insurance’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Arkansas 4th District (AR-04), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split worker from dependent benefits and does not publish a beneficiary denominator. 588 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a beneficiary census, a claims roster, or a named-recipient file.
Dividing $647,578,056 by 588 yields about $1,101,323.22 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical monthly benefit or a posted per-beneficiary figure. 588 awards is a thick SSDI file. Volume pulls the implied mean down relative to thinner Social Security joins. Beneficiaries remain unpublished. Do not treat AR-04’s 96.001 cell as a synonym for every SSDI account nationwide. Open Arkansas 4th District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 96.001 for CFDA 96.001 without the AR-04 filter, Arkansas federal spending for every program in the Arkansas extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $647,578,056.
Social Security Disability Insurance as a CFDA tag, not as a named-vendor list
USAspending labels CFDA 96.001 as Social Security Disability Insurance. That catalog number produced $647,578,056 when crossed with Arkansas 4th District (AR-04) place of performance. The program-wide 96.001 hub does not require AR-04 geography. The district hub does not require SSDI. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 588 awards. The packet does not split worker from dependent benefits and does not publish a beneficiary denominator.
Correlation is not causation: Arkansas 4th District (AR-04) did not “cause” $647,578,056 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 96.001 × AR-04 only. It is not a beneficiary census, a claims roster, or a named-recipient file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.
Place of performance for Arkansas 4th District (AR-04)
Arkansas 4th District (AR-04) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list AR-04 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Arkansas districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 96.001. Arkansas 4th District (AR-04) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Arkansas. Other Arkansas districts are separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 96.001. Arkansas 4th District (AR-04) is the same CFDA 96.001 as Arkansas 1st and 2nd, with a different place-of-performance stamp and a different award count.
Obligation math for this join
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $647,578,056 is that kind of sum for Social Security Disability Insurance inside AR-04 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same CFDA rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $647,578,056 as given.
Arkansas’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 588-row SSDI cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 588 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 588 is not a count of beneficiaries, claims, or SSA offices. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($1,101,323.22) is a concentration statistic, not a typical monthly benefit or a posted per-beneficiary figure.

The pair is not a beneficiary census, a claims roster, or a named-recipient file. 8.5% of $7,630,161,345.60 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. Do not fold AR-04 into the Arkansas 1st SSDI pair. Same catalog number, different district keys, separate obligation sums.
Using 8.5% and $1,101,323.22 without overclaiming
588 awards is a thick SSDI file. Volume pulls the implied mean down relative to thinner Social Security joins. Beneficiaries remain unpublished. A large row count makes a project split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $1,101,323.22) and the district share (8.5% of $7,630,161,345.60) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Arkansas 4th District and CFDA 96.001 if the live tables moved.
Do not rank Arkansas 4th District (AR-04) as more SSDI-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 96.001 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 96.001 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $647,578,056 and 588 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.
