overview
The data are from the Census Bureau Consolidated Federal Funds Reports
obtained from Federal Government agencies on Federal expenditures
and obligations for grants, salaries and wages, procurements, direct
payments, direct loans, guaranteed loans, and insurance. ERS has
aggregated the data to reveal the urban-rural distribution of Federal
funding. The Federal funds data for each Federal program and for
each county and State are screened for accuracy to the county level
and then aggregated by function and type of program, and by type
of county, State, and region.
