VA disability compensation in Colorado 5th District (CO-05)

What the VA disability–CO-05 join is

CFDA 64.109 and congressional district CO-05 meet here. $1,201,205,574 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Veterans Compensation For Service-Connected Disability’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Colorado 5th District (CO-05), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split rating percentages and does not publish a veteran denominator. 12 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a veteran headcount, a rating census, or a named-beneficiary file.

Dividing $1,201,205,574 by 12 yields about $100,100,464.50 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical monthly compensation or a posted per-veteran figure. 12 awards against a one-and-two-tenth-billion-dollar VA cell is a thin file. Do not invent a base census or named veterans. Do not treat CO-05’s 64.109 cell as a synonym for every VA disability account nationwide. Open Colorado 5th District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 64.109 for CFDA 64.109 without the CO-05 filter, Colorado federal spending for every program in the Colorado extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $1,201,205,574.

CFDA 64.109 as the VA disability side

USAspending labels CFDA 64.109 as Veterans Compensation For Service-Connected Disability. That catalog number produced $1,201,205,574 when crossed with Colorado 5th District (CO-05) place of performance. The program-wide 64.109 hub does not require CO-05 geography. The district hub does not require VA disability. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 12 awards. The packet does not split rating percentages and does not publish a veteran denominator.

Correlation is not causation: Colorado 5th District (CO-05) did not “cause” $1,201,205,574 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 64.109 × CO-05 only. It is not a veteran headcount, a rating census, or a named-beneficiary 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.

Colorado 5th District (CO-05) as place of performance

Colorado 5th District (CO-05) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list CO-05 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Colorado districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 64.109. Colorado 5th District (CO-05) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Colorado. Other Colorado districts are separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 64.109. Colorado 5th District (CO-05) is not Colorado 2nd District. The geosciences pair on CO-02 uses CFDA 47.050, not 64.109.

Colorado federal spending shows how CFDA 64.109 sits beside other programs in the same state extract. $1,201,205,574 is one district-program column, not the state table. This packet does not split Colorado 5th District (CO-05) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different CFDA stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Veterans Compensation For Service-Connected Disability. The district-wide obligation total published here is $24,267,357,419.95; $1,201,205,574 is the VA disability slice of that denominator.

Obligations, not outlays

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $1,201,205,574 is that kind of sum for Veterans Compensation For Service-Connected Disability inside CO-05 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 $1,201,205,574 as given.

Colorado’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 12-row VA disability cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 12 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 12 is not a count of veterans, ratings, or claims. 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 ($100,100,464.50) is a concentration statistic, not a typical monthly compensation or a posted per-veteran figure.

How to cite VA disability in CO-05

Cite USAspending.gov: Veterans Compensation For Service-Connected Disability (CFDA 64.109) obligated $1,201,205,574 on 12 awards coded to Colorado 5th District (CO-05).

If Colorado 5th District or CFDA 64.109 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a veteran headcount, a rating census, or a named-beneficiary file. 4.9% of $24,267,357,419.95 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. Florida 1st (36 awards) and North Carolina 3rd (130 awards) use the same CFDA on other geographies; row counts are not interchangeable.

Keep Veterans Compensation For Service-Connected Disability, Colorado 5th District (CO-05), $1,201,205,574, and 12 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. CFDA 64.109 is the 64.109 parent without a CO-05 filter. Colorado federal spending is the Colorado parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with VA disability does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.

Reading a thin VA disability file in CO-05

12 awards against a one-and-two-tenth-billion-dollar VA cell is a thin file. Do not invent a base census or named veterans. 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 $100,100,464.50) and the district share (4.9% of $24,267,357,419.95) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Colorado 5th District and CFDA 64.109 if the live tables moved.

Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $100,100,464.50, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does $1,201,205,574 include every VA disability project in CO-05?

The packet publishes one CFDA rollup. The packet does not split rating percentages and does not publish a veteran denominator. $1,201,205,574 is the combined obligation sum for CFDA 64.109 inside CO-05 coding.

Open CFDA 64.109 and Colorado 5th District to inspect parent tables. 12 remains an action count, not a count of veterans, ratings, or claims.

Is $1,201,205,574 cash already paid in Colorado 5th District (CO-05)?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $1,201,205,574 as checks already cleared in Colorado 5th District (CO-05) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 12 awards. Prefer the live district and program hubs if the tables moved.

Where is the live VA disability–CO-05 table?

Colorado 5th District is the district parent and CFDA 64.109 is the program parent. Colorado federal spending covers Colorado without the district×program intersection as the headline. All spending ties lists other pairs. Those hubs are not addends. Keep both sides of the join when citing $1,201,205,574. Place of performance is CO-05. Obligations are not outlays.
