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. Idaho school district figures come from each district's fiscal year 2025 financial summary filed with the Idaho State Department of Education. They cover governmental funds and enterprise funds such as school meals, and leave out transfers between funds and debt proceeds. Spending is grouped as education and debt payments, and local revenue the summary does not break out is shown as other income.

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.
