The National Center for Veterans Analysis and Statistics (NCVAS) annually publishes the Geographic Distribution of VA Expenditures (GDX) Report, which details VA spending across major programs at the state, county, and Congressional District levels. The report categorizes expenditures into key program areas:
- Compensation and Pension;
- Education and Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment;
- Insurance;
- Loan Guaranty;
- Medical Expenditures;
- Specially Adapted Housing (SAH) and Automobiles and Adaptive Equipment;
- Memorial Benefits;
- Dependency & Indemnity Compensation (DIC) and Survivors Pension; and
- Construction and Related Costs.
PLEASE NOTE: For FY2024, the methodology was revised to enhance accuracy by aggregating individual-level expenditure data linked directly to Veterans’ addresses and grouping categories by direct and indirect expenditures. This change enables a more precise geographic allocation of resources, better reflecting how VA benefits and services support Veterans and their communities nationwide. More information on the changes to the methodology are located here.
