Security Guards and Patrol Services in South Carolina 2nd District (SC-02)
The NAICS 561612 × SC-02 cell on USAspending.gov is $1,385,671,840.15 in obligations across 3 awards. Three guard-and-patrol rows against nearly $1.39 billion is an extreme concentration of actions, not a post-by-post headcount. That pair is Security Guards And Patrol Services (NAICS 561612) and South Carolina 2nd District (SC-02) — not South Carolina's entire federal inflow, not NAICS 561612 nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 3.6% of this district's published obligation total ($38,716,870,492.45). Implied average obligation is about $461,890,613.38 ($1,385,671,840.15 ÷ 3). The packet does not publish a fiscal year on this join. Correlation is not causation.

A place-of-performance join: NAICS 561612 × SC-02
Congressional district SC-02 and NAICS 561612 meet here. $1,385,671,840.15 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Security Guards And Patrol Services's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to South Carolina 2nd District (SC-02), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split armed versus unarmed posts, or contract versus assistance. 3 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a guard headcount, a post roster, or a named-vendor file.
This page reports security guards and patrol services activity USAspending tagged to South Carolina 2nd District (SC-02). The headline $1,385,671,840.15 sits beside a district-wide obligation total of $38,716,870,492.45; the 3.6% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of South Carolina districts as winners or losers. District 90 and 98 placeholders are omitted from this harvest. Obligations are not outlays. Security guards is a services NAICS, not facilities support 561210 used on VA-09 and AK-00 in this slice.
Security Guards And Patrol Services as an industry code, not as a named-vendor list
USAspending labels NAICS 561612 as Security Guards And Patrol Services. That code produced $1,385,671,840.15 when crossed with South Carolina 2nd District (SC-02) place of performance. The industry-wide 561612 hub does not require SC-02 geography. The district hub does not require Security Guards. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 3 awards. The packet does not split armed versus unarmed posts, or contract versus assistance.
Correlation is not causation: South Carolina 2nd District (SC-02) did not cause $1,385,671,840.15 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 561612 × SC-02 only. This cell is not a guard headcount, a post roster, or a named-vendor 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.

Using 3.6% and $461,890,613.38 without overclaiming
3 awards is an extremely thin services file. Armed versus unarmed splits are unpublished. Unique vendors are unpublished. A three-row file makes a named-contractor story tempting; the packet still does not name contractors. A large row count makes a program 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 $461,890,613.38) and the district share (3.6% of $38,716,870,492.45) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer /districts/SC-02/ and /industries/561612/ if the live tables moved. Security guards is a services NAICS, not facilities support 561210 used on VA-09 and AK-00 in this slice.
