Why not this year? Tennessee governments with newer filings show county figures from the Tennessee Comptroller of the Treasury (for 2025). Each other figure is the newest year the U.S. Census Bureau has published for that government, so the years differ and are not the current year. Most governments post their current budget on their own website.

How these figures are counted. Tennessee county figures are the audited annual financial reports filed with the Tennessee Comptroller of the Treasury, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, and include the county's school department. They cover the governmental and enterprise funds and leave out internal service funds and funds held for others, such as sales tax collected for cities. Borrowing, transfers between a county's own funds and depreciation are not counted. Cities and school districts in this ZIP that are not counties stay on the Census figures. Debt payments include principal as well as interest.

How a ZIP is matched. A ZIP code is not a government boundary, so we match it to the cities, counties and school districts that overlap it, using Census Bureau geography. Where a ZIP crosses several, each one is shown with its share of the ZIP. Each government's money covers its own operations only; the others listed here are separate.

Latest recorded year. The year differs by government: each block shows the newest fiscal year on file. A Census survey year covers fiscal years ending July 1 of the year before through June 30 of that year.
