Read the reporting limits first

Census edits these records to produce aggregate statistics. It warns that individual-government observations are not checked for accurate city time series and can contain reporting, coverage and processing errors. The 2022 census is broad; the 2024 annual survey is a sample. This page uses the latest available observation for this government, not a claim of current-year completeness.

Latest source flags: 7 reported (R). These flags do not establish fraud or audit assurance.

Finance entries, with their source flags

These are individual-government observations in a Census public-use file. They are not an adopted city budget, a payment ledger, or a verified city total. An absent item is unknown, not zero. Imputed entries remain labeled. An M flag marks an unknown item-data classification. Census can still supply a numeric amount, which is retained here with the flag.

7 of 7 published entries · survey 2022 · amounts converted from thousands of dollars. Different survey years are separate snapshots; this file does not validate a city time series.

From tracking spending to demanding receipts

Public money should leave a public receipt.

Today’s reporting can show spending without a complete trail to the final recipient or proof of delivery. Help close those gaps, strengthen checks before payment, and reduce opportunities for fraud and abuse.
