The Public Sector Annual Surveys and Census of Governments identifies the scope and nature of the nation's state and local government sector; provides official counts of U.S. governments and authoritative benchmark figures of public finance and public employment.

This dataset provides detailed micro-level financial estimates from U.S. state and local government units for the 2022 fiscal year. Sourced from the Census Bureau’s Annual Survey of State and Local Government Finances, the file contains anonymized unit-level entries reflecting reported revenues, expenditures, debt, and intergovernmental transfers. It is formatted for high-efficiency batch processing and statistical analysis, particularly in fiscal federalism research, municipal finance evaluations, and comparative public sector accounting. The dataset enables advanced empirical modeling of public finance behaviors at sub-national levels and supports reproducible economic analyses.

The government types are: County, Municipal, Township, Special District, and School District. Of these five types, three are categorized as General Purpose governments: County, municipal, and township governments are readily recognized and generally present no serious problem of classification. However, legislative provisions for school district and special district governments are diverse. These two types are categorized as Special Purpose governments. Numerous single-function and multiple-function districts, authorities, commissions, boards, and other entities, which have varying degrees of autonomy, exist in the United States. The basic pattern of these entities varies widely from state to state. Moreover, various classes of local governments within a particular state also differ in their characteristics.
