Illinois 9th District

A place-of-performance join: NSF × IL-09

Awarding agency 049 and congressional district IL-09 meet here. $175,235,402 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not National Science Foundation’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Illinois 9th District (IL-09), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split NSF directorates or contract versus assistance instruments. 156 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a grant-portfolio roster, a campus census, or a named-principal-investigator file.

Dividing $175,235,402 by 156 yields about $1,123,303.86 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 156 awards is a compact-to-moderate NSF file. Do not merge IL-09 with IL-01 when citing National Science Foundation dollars. Do not treat IL-09’s 049 cell as a synonym for every NSF account nationwide. Open Illinois 9th District for the district table without this agency filter, National Science Foundation for agency 049 without the IL-09 filter, Illinois federal spending for every awarding agency in the Illinois extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $175,235,402.

National Science Foundation as awarding agency, not as a named-vendor list

USAspending labels awarding agency 049 as National Science Foundation. That code produced $175,235,402 when crossed with Illinois 9th District (IL-09) place of performance. The agency-wide 049 hub does not require IL-09 geography. The district hub does not require NSF. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 156 awards. The packet does not split NSF directorates or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: Illinois 9th District (IL-09) did not “cause” $175,235,402 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 049 × IL-09 only. It is not a grant-portfolio roster, a campus census, or a named-principal-investigator 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.

Questions

How much NSF spending is coded to Illinois 9th District (IL-09)?

USAspending.gov lists $175,235,402 in National Science Foundation obligations across 156 awards with place of performance in Illinois 9th District (IL-09). Agency 049 × IL-09 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Illinois’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 7.0% of the district’s published total ($2,486,077,601.36). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $1,123,303.86, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does $175,235,402 include every NSF program in IL-09?

The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup. The packet does not split NSF directorates or contract versus assistance instruments. $175,235,402 is the combined obligation sum for agency 049 inside IL-09 coding. This page will not invent a program pie or name contractors. Open National Science Foundation and Illinois 9th District to inspect parent tables. 156 remains an action count, not a program count.

Is $175,235,402 cash already paid in Illinois 9th District (IL-09)?

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 $175,235,402 as checks already cleared in Illinois 9th District (IL-09) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 156 awards. Prefer the live district and agency hubs if the tables moved.

Is Illinois 9th District (IL-09) ranked against other Illinois districts here?
