Place-of-performance CA-17 crossed with Research And Development In The Social Sciences And Humanities (NAICS 541720) yields $1,343,234,500.43 in USAspending.gov obligations on 8 awards. Eight social-science-and-humanities rows equal about six percent of California 17th. Physical-science R&D codes 541715 and 541710 on GA-05 and MD-07 are different research NAICS. That pair is Research And Development In The Social Sciences And Humanities (NAICS 541720) and California 17th District (CA-17) — not California's entire federal inflow, not NAICS 541720 nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 5.5% of this district's published obligation total ($24,388,176,275.50). Implied average obligation is about $167,904,312.55 ($1,343,234,500.43 ÷ 8). The packet does not publish a fiscal year on this join. Correlation is not causation.
Key figures
- Social Sciences R&D in California 17th District (CA-17): $1,343,234,500.43 across 8 USAspending awards (NAICS 541720).
- Implied mean about $167,904,312.55 per record; district share 5.5% of $24,388,176,275.50.
- NAICS 541720 × CA-17 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not a named-recipient list.
- Cite USAspending.gov; quote California 17th District and NAICS 541720 if live tables moved.
- California federal spending and All spending ties are a parent and an index, not amounts to add into $1,343,234,500.43.
Research And Development In The Social Sciences And Humanities and California 17th District (CA-17) as a USAspending pair
Congressional district CA-17 and NAICS 541720 meet here. $1,343,234,500.43 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Research And Development In The Social Sciences And Humanities's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to California 17th District (CA-17), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split social sciences from humanities, or contract versus assistance. 8 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a study catalog, a named-investigator list, or a campus census.
This page reports research and development in the social sciences and humanities activity USAspending tagged to California 17th District (CA-17). The headline $1,343,234,500.43 sits beside a district-wide obligation total of $24,388,176,275.50; the 5.5% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of California districts as winners or losers. District 90 and 98 placeholders are omitted from this harvest. Obligations are not outlays. Humanities and social sciences stay inside one NAICS. This page will not invent a discipline pie.
How USAspending labels Research And Development In The Social Sciences And Humanities
USAspending labels NAICS 541720 as Research And Development In The Social Sciences And Humanities. That code produced $1,343,234,500.43 when crossed with California 17th District (CA-17) place of performance. The industry-wide 541720 hub does not require CA-17 geography. The district hub does not require Social Sciences R&D. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 8 awards. The packet does not split social sciences from humanities, or contract versus assistance.
Correlation is not causation: California 17th District (CA-17) did not cause $1,343,234,500.43 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 541720 × CA-17 only. This cell is not a study catalog, a named-investigator list, or a campus census. 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.

Questions
- How much Social Sciences R&D spending is coded to California 17th District (CA-17)?
- USAspending.gov lists $1,343,234,500.43 in Research And Development In The Social Sciences And Humanities obligations across 8 awards with place of performance in California 17th District (CA-17). NAICS 541720 × CA-17 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not California's complete federal ledger. The cell is 5.5% of the district's published total ($24,388,176,275.50). Unique recipients are unpublished.
- Does $1,343,234,500.43 include every Social Sciences R&D program in CA-17?
- The packet publishes one NAICS rollup. The packet does not split social sciences from humanities, or contract versus assistance. $1,343,234,500.43 is the combined obligation sum for NAICS 541720 inside CA-17 coding. This page will not invent a program pie or name contractors. Open NAICS 541720 and California 17th District to inspect parent tables. 8 remains an action count, not a program count.
- Is $1,343,234,500.43 cash already paid in California 17th District (CA-17)?
- 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 $1,343,234,500.43 as checks already cleared in California 17th District (CA-17) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 8 awards. Prefer the live district and industry hubs if the tables moved.
- How does this Social Sciences R&D cell relate to California statewide spending?
- California federal spending is the California statewide extract across industries. $1,343,234,500.43 is the Research And Development In The Social Sciences And Humanities amount inside California 17th District (CA-17) only, not the statewide Social Sciences R&D total. Adding California federal spending to $1,343,234,500.43 double-counts. NAICS 541720 nationwide lives on NAICS 541720. This join is 541720 × CA-17.
