Summary

A State’s yearly allotment must be the larger of two amounts. One is a fixed minimum: $300,000 for each State, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, and $50,000 for Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands. The other is a formula: multiply the total amount appropriated for the program that year by the State’s share of the nation’s urbanized population (State urbanized population divided by total U.S. urbanized population), using the latest Census Bureau data.
