How much did NSF obligate with MA-02 place of performance?

USAspending.gov records $190,342,246 in National Science Foundation obligations with Massachusetts 2nd District (MA-02) place of performance across 249 awards. That is an obligation aggregate for the district-agency pair, not an outlay and not Massachusetts's complete federal ledger.

Is 249 a count of unique Massachusetts investigators?

No. 249 is an award-action count and can include modifications. Unique vendors are not published. Average obligation is about $764,426.69 per award, a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical invoice. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.

Does $190,342,246 include every NSF award in Massachusetts?

No. $190,342,246 is only the National Science Foundation slice tagged to Massachusetts 2nd District (MA-02). Massachusetts federal spending is the statewide parent. Massachusetts 2nd District includes other awarding agencies in the same district. Mixing those books into this total would overstate the join.

Which pages parent NSF in Massachusetts 2nd District?

Massachusetts 2nd District is the district parent. National Science Foundation is the agency hub. Massachusetts federal spending is the Massachusetts parent. All spending ties lists other pairs. Prefer those tables after later ingests; this page quotes National Science Foundation × MA-02 at $190,342,246.

USAspending.gov tags $190,342,246 to National Science Foundation inside Massachusetts 2nd District (MA-02) — 249 award records, not outlays. Agency 049 crossed with place of performance MA-02 is the pair. It is not a college ranking, a Nobel-prize scoreboard, or a named-lab directory. The cell is 3.3% of this district's published obligation total ($5,742,787,875.11).

Key figures

Average obligation per award is about $764,426.69 (ratio only).

How NSF meets Massachusetts 2nd District (MA-02)

The pair on this overlay is National Science Foundation inside Massachusetts 2nd District (MA-02) place of performance. $190,342,246 is that obligation rollup. It is not Massachusetts's complete federal inflow, not National Science Foundation nationwide, and not cash already paid. Massachusetts 2nd District and National Science Foundation are parents, not addends. Correlation is not causation.

249 is an award-action count. Modifications and delivery orders can add rows. Unique vendors are unpublished. Dividing $190,342,246 by 249 yields about $764,426.69 per award, a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical invoice. Campaign-finance tables do not fund these obligations. 249 awards is a mid-size action file. Treat the count as records in an aggregate, not as {n} finished projects.

National Science Foundation, agency code 049

Awarding agency 049 is National Science Foundation. Two hundred forty-nine is an action count, not a unique-campus census. This packet does not name universities. Confusing this join with Massachusetts statewide NSF totals or the Massachusetts 8th Justice overlay would be a different overlay. Packet facts on the agency side are the name National Science Foundation, code 049, and the join dollars $190,342,246. Any other recipient or installation list would be invented.

National Science Foundation drops the district filter. Other districts with National Science Foundation awards are other ties. This page quotes only Massachusetts 2nd District (MA-02). Do not treat MA-02 as the NSF capital of Massachusetts. Directorate and instrument splits are omitted. FEC donations do not fund this join.
