Search Stimulus Spending In Your County (With the Latest Data!)
In spite of the Obama administration’s promise that you can use Recovery.gov to follow every stimulus dollar to your local community, the site doesn’t quite get there.

The result: The most comprehensive publicly available database of stimulus spending that we know of.
And — unlike Recovery.gov — you can search right down to your county. Have at it.
This article is part of an ongoing investigation:
Officials have struggled to spend the nearly $800 billion stimulus package quickly and effectively.
