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: 54 imputed (I). These flags do not establish fraud or audit assurance.

Original files and reproducible records

Survey years are retained as published. Amounts use source item codes and explicit flags; no missing value is replaced with zero. No cross-year growth or city rankings are inferred.

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.
