Nearly 1,975 SSA rows in West Virginia's 1st District
West Virginia 1st District (WV-01) stores a thick SSA award file: nearly two thousand rows. File thickness is not proof of more field offices, and it is not a comparison that ranks WV-01 against WV-02. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $5,426,176,131.31 on 1,975 awards for awarding agency 028 with West Virginia 1st District (WV-01) as place of performance. Treat the pair as a table intersection, not a ranking of districts as winners or losers, and not a claim that 1,975 awards equal 1,975 beneficiaries. A Social Security Administration amount tagged to a different district is out of this cell.
HHS, Labor, or Treasury income-support listings stored under other awarding agencies sit outside $5,426,176,131.31 unless those awards also carry agency 028 and WV-01 geography. Mixing those lines would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and poverty rates or retirement ages is not causation. Those series are not in the packet. Place of performance as WV-01 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $5,426,176,131.31 in a district treasury. West Virginia 2nd District SSA dollars are a different geography tag and are not inside this WV-01 cell.
Award grain for SSA in WV-01
One thousand nine hundred seventy-five SSA awards can include continuations. Mean obligation is a quotient, not a typical monthly benefit. Mean obligation is about $2,747,430.95 if $5,426,176,131.31 were divided evenly across 1,975 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a published typical award. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards, including possible modifications. The extract does not split retirement from disability or SSI inside agency 028. Unique recipients are unpublished.
This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open West Virginia 1st District for the stored district table and Social Security Administration for the national agency shelf. Do not convert 1,975 into a map of beneficiaries, field offices, or monthly checks inside West Virginia 1st District. The $5,426,176,131.31 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on USAspending.gov rather than inferring an inventory.
WV-01 SSA dollars are not cashed benefit checks
SSA obligations are commitments, not checks already mailed. SSA awards often obligate as benefit-related accounts are charged and draw as payments or administration are billed. The $5,426,176,131.31 headline is the obligation sum on this district-agency join, not monthly benefits already on debit cards. Citing the figure as cash already sent confuses two USAspending concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. No fiscal year is attached to this packet; do not annualize $5,426,176,131.31 into a yearly run rate.
Keep the obligation word on $5,426,176,131.31. Keep both Social Security Administration and West Virginia 1st District (WV-01) in the citation. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell. Different datasets can share a state abbreviation without sharing a money trail.
What agency 028 omits on WV-01 geography
The extract has no roster of beneficiaries, field offices, or monthly checks. Facts remain $5,426,176,131.31, 1,975 awards, agency 028 (Social Security Administration), West Virginia 1st District (WV-01), and a district-wide book of $14,424,326,160.45. This page will not invent a contractor league table. Sibling district-agency joins are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score.
West Virginia 1st District places WV-01 among other congressional districts. Social Security Administration places agency 028 among other awarding agencies. West Virginia federal spending is the statewide shelf. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of West Virginia spending or of Social Security Administration's national book the packet never computed. The $5,426,176,131.31 figure is the tagged pair only. West Virginia 2nd District SSA dollars are a different geography tag and are not inside this WV-01 cell.
Citing Social Security Administration in WV-01
A clean footnote names Social Security Administration (agency 028), West Virginia 1st District (WV-01), $5,426,176,131.31 in obligations, and 1,975 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not relabel 1,975 as a census of beneficiaries, field offices, or monthly checks. Quote the district overlay if you need every awarding agency in WV-01, and quote the agency page if you need Social Security Administration without a district filter. About 37.6% of the $14,424,326,160.45 district book sits on this agency in the extract; that percentage is a derived ratio, not a separate published table.
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 028. The other is congressional district place of performance as WV-01. The headline $5,426,176,131.31 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that Social Security Administration caused West Virginia 1st District's economy to grow, or that the district caused the awards to exist. If a later ingest moves the live overlay, prefer the overlay when the table and this snapshot diverge.
