Social Security Administration obligations in New Mexico 1st District (NM-01)
The SSA × NM-01 cell on USAspending.gov is $4,156,841,699.31 in obligations across 672 awards. Six hundred seventy-two SSA-coded awards equal under five percent of NM-01's district obligation total because the district denominator is huge — near eighty-nine billion dollars — not because the Social Security dollars are trivial. That pair is Social Security Administration and New Mexico 1st District (NM-01) — not New Mexico's entire federal inflow, not Social Security Administration nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 4.7% of this district's published obligation total ($89,351,093,094.68). Implied average obligation is about $6,185,776.34 ($4,156,841,699.31 ÷ 672). Correlation is not causation.

A place-of-performance join: SSA × NM-01
Awarding agency 028 and congressional district NM-01 meet here. $4,156,841,699.31 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Social Security Administration's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to New Mexico 1st District (NM-01), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split SSA programs or contract versus assistance instruments. 672 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a beneficiary caseload, a monthly-check register, or a named-payee file.
Dividing $4,156,841,699.31 by 672 yields about $6,185,776.34 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 672 awards is a moderate SSA file against a district total near eighty-nine billion dollars. Share is modest because the denominator is large. Do not treat NM-01's 028 cell as a synonym for every SSA account nationwide. Open New Mexico 1st District for the district table without this agency filter, Social Security Administration for agency 028 without a NM-01 filter, New Mexico federal spending for every awarding agency in the New Mexico extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $4,156,841,699.31.
Social Security Administration as awarding agency, not as a named-vendor list
USAspending labels awarding agency 028 as Social Security Administration. That code produced $4,156,841,699.31 when crossed with New Mexico 1st District (NM-01) place of performance. The agency-wide 028 hub does not require NM-01 geography. The district hub does not require SSA. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 672 awards. The packet does not split SSA programs or contract versus assistance instruments.
Correlation is not causation: New Mexico 1st District (NM-01) did not cause $4,156,841,699.31 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 028 × NM-01 only. This cell is not a beneficiary caseload, a monthly-check register, or a named-payee 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.
Place of performance for New Mexico 1st District (NM-01)
New Mexico 1st District (NM-01) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list NM-01 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other New Mexico districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 028. New Mexico 1st District (NM-01) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside New Mexico. Other New Mexico districts are separate joins even when they reuse awarding-agency 028. New Mexico 1st District (NM-01) is a high-dollar place-of-performance geography. Other New Mexico districts are different stamps even when SSA appears again.
Obligation math for this join
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $4,156,841,699.31 is that kind of sum for Social Security Administration inside NM-01 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 awarding-agency rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $4,156,841,699.31 as given.
New Mexico's own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 672-row SSA cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 672 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 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 ($6,185,776.34) is a concentration statistic, not a typical NM-01 SSA payment.
What a complete citation includes
Cite USAspending.gov: Social Security Administration (agency 028) obligated $4,156,841,699.31 on 672 awards coded to New Mexico 1st District (NM-01). Name Social Security Administration and New Mexico 1st District (NM-01) together. Keep the obligation word. If New Mexico 1st District or Social Security Administration has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a beneficiary caseload, a monthly-check register, or a named-payee file. 4.7% of $89,351,093,094.68 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.
Using 4.7% and $6,185,776.34 without overclaiming
672 awards is a moderate SSA file against a district total near eighty-nine billion dollars. Share is modest because the denominator is large. Other SSA × district pages can show similar dollar magnitudes against much smaller district books, so their shares look larger. Same agency, different geography and denominator. 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 $6,185,776.34) and the district share (4.7% of $89,351,093,094.68) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer New Mexico 1st District and Social Security Administration if the live tables moved.
Do not rank New Mexico 1st District (NM-01) as more SSA-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 028 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 028 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $4,156,841,699.31 and 672 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.
Questions

Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $6,185,776.34, a ratio of those two facts only.
- Does $4,156,841,699.31 include every SSA program in NM-01?

- Is $4,156,841,699.31 cash already paid in New Mexico 1st District (NM-01)?
