From the Missoulian: "Montana has slipped a few notches in its share of annual federal spending.
"According to the U.S. Census Bureau's Consolidated Federal Funds Report for fiscal 2004, Montanans stand 14th in the nation for receiving $8,084.85 per person. Montana ranked 11th in 2003. The national average was $7,222 for every American in 2004."
You can find more details on the geographic distribution of federal expenditures in the full Consolidated Federal Funds Report. The Montana Census and Economic Information Center (CEIC) provides a helpful map showing county-level expenditures for Montana.
