Congressional Research Service 1
Introduction
Introduction
The federal government employs more than 2 million civilians who live and work in every state and U.S. territory. As Congress considers the impact of federal appropriations at the national, state, and local levels, Members may seek information on the number of federal employees in their state or congressional district.
This report provides a snapshot of recent statistics for U.S. government employment in each state and territory, as well as estimates for how many federal workers live in each congressional district as configured in the 118119th Congress (2023-2024).
Please note that these figures do not include uniformed military personnel or federal contractors. Additional data limitations are noted below.
This product will be updated on an annual basis. See CRS Report R43590, Federal Workforce Statistics Sources: OPM and OMB, by Carol Wilson, for more information and context.
State-Level Counts
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) maintains data on the federal civilian workforce through the Enterprise Human Resources Integration (EHRI) Data Warehouse. This data can be accessed and analyzed through OPM’s 's online tool FedScope.1 In this tool, OPM provides various data elements associated with “"on-board”" employees, which are defined as the number of employees in pay status at the end of each quarter. Popular data elements include the duty location of federal employees by state, territory, or foreign country.
Table 1 contains OPM figures for the number of on-board federal civilian employees in the state or territory of their assigned duty station (official worksite), as of the end of MarchSeptember 2024.
It is important to note that FedScope excludes a number of departments and agencies, including the U.S. Postal Service and most of the legislative and judicial branches; a full list of excluded agencies is available on the FedScope website.2 Also, FedScope does not provide state-level location information for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives; the Bureau of the Mint; the Drug Enforcement Agency; the Federal Bureau of Investigation; or the U.S. Secret Service. Employees of these agencies who work in the Washington, DC-MD-VA-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) are recorded as having a duty station in the District of Columbia, while employees outside this MSA are reported as On-board employment at the end of September 2024 State or Territory Federal Civilian Employment Alabama 41,319 Alaska 11,658 American Samoa 111 Arizona 34,460 Arkansas 14,269 California 150,679 Colorado 41,167 Connecticut 7,304 Delaware 3,998 District of Columbia 162,489 Florida 95,167 Georgia 81,366 Guam 3,372 Hawaii 24,804 Idaho 10,993 Illinois 45,213 Indiana 24,499 Iowa 9,930 Kansas 17,824 Kentucky 23,449 Louisiana 19,486 Maine 12,717 Maryland 144,497 Massachusetts 25,698 Michigan 29,822 Minnesota 18,183 Mississippi 19,690 Missouri 37,220 Montana 11,353 Nebraska 10,412 Nevada 13,967 New Hampshire 5,208 New Jersey 22,684 New Mexico 22,695 New York 54,092 North Carolina 51,900 North Dakota 5,736 Northern Mariana Islands 102 Ohio 56,068 Oklahoma 42,212 Oregon 20,952 Pennsylvania 66,656 Puerto Rico 15,204 Rhode Island 8,598 South Carolina 24,863 South Dakota 8,940 Tennessee 32,574 Texas 130,686 U.S. Virgin Islands 423 Utah 33,961 Vermont 3,368 Virginia 147,358 Washington 58,508 West Virginia 17,301 Wisconsin 17,946 Wyoming 6,832 Source: U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), FedScope.“"suppressed.”" Additionally, OPM withholds location information for a number of sensitive occupations, such as police, intelligence, and customs inspection.

Source: U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), FedScope. Notes: State location reflects duty station, not place of residence. Some departments and agencies are not included in these figures. For some other agencies and occupations, employee locations are suppressed or reassigned to the District of Columbia. OPM reported 269,986276,235 federal civilian employees with a suppressed duty station in the United States, as of the end of MarchSeptember 2024.

District-Level Estimates
OPM’'s FedScope database does not provide a breakdown for federal employment by congressional district. However, district-level estimates for the number of federal government workers are available from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 's American Community Survey (ACS)..
Table 2 contains 20232024 ACS estimates for the number of people who are employed by the federal government and live in each of the 435 congressional districts, the margin of error for that estimate, and a calculation of federal workers as a percentage of all employed civilians (aged 16 and older) who live in that district. The table includes the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.4
4 American Community Survey (ACS) data are not available for other U.S. territories.

Congressional Research Service 4
These are one-year ACS estimates and come with margins of error, which can be significant. The ACS relies on self-identification as a federal government civilian employee, and so this does not represent an official count of employees on federal payrolls. In addition, unlike OPM’'s state-level statistics, the congressional district location in these estimates reflects place of residence rather than duty station. For all of these reasons, ACS estimates may differ from OPM employment counts.
Note that these statistics reflect the congressional-district configurations in effect during the 118th Congress (2023-2024) and do not account for changes made in some states for the 119th Congress (2025-2026).5

Source: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey (ACS); CRS calculations. Notes: One-year ACS estimates for 2023. Congressional districts as configured in the 118th Congress (2023- 2024). The estimated number of civilians who are employed by the federal government, the associated margin of error, and the estimated total number of employed civilians aged 16 and older all came from ACS Table S2408, Class of Worker by Sex for the Civilian Employed Population 16 Years and Over. CRS calculated the percentage of employed civilians living in each district who are employed by the federal government. The ACS relies on self- identification as a federal government civilian employee. Congressional district location reflects place of residence rather than duty station. The District of Columbia is represented by a nonvoting Delegate, and Puerto Rico is represented by a nonvoting Resident Commissioner.
