City Budgets (TX only) (Archives, 2000-2015)
Summary: General Fund revenues and expenditures
Database Detail
| Name | City Budgets (TX only) (Archives, 2000-2015) |
| Summary | General Fund revenues and expenditures |
| Additional Background | This database contains General Fund revenues and expenditures for large Texas cities for which budget data are available. It also contains per capita revenues and expenditures, based on population data provided by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Budget data reflect federal Fiscal Years, which run from Oct. 1–Sept. 30. Population data reflect that recorded on July 1 of each Fiscal Year.
Data reflect unaudited figures from annual Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFRs). Most of the cities that report these revenue and expenditure data use a modified accural basis, rather than a cash basis. These figures typically are similar to, but not identical to figures reported in annual budget documents. Expenditures may exceed revenues because other financing sources, such as tax-supported debt, are not included as total expenditures. Finally, note that some cities report combined Police and Fire as Public Safety. In cases where both Police and Fire are reported, Public Safety is the sum of these two categories. Data are reported in dollars.
2015 Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFRs) for Brownsville, Grand Pairie, Killeen, Mcallen and Tyler were not available for the most recent update.

Set APA as default format
APA
Format or style, from the American Psychological Association, is commonly used for footnotes in behavioral and social science publications. APA citation is an author-year-system. It is one of the most common styles used and taught at colleges and high schools. See here for more details, including APA formatting for bibliographies.Chicago
Format or style (also known as Turabian), created by the University of Chicago, is commonly used for footnotes in history, business, and fine arts and occasionally in the humanities, sciences, and social sciences. The Chicago style has two systems of citation. The author-date system (most common in social sciences and sciences) cites sources parenthetically in the text. The notes and bibliography system (most common in humanities) cites sources in numbered footnotes or endnotes which correspond to a superscript number in the text. See here for more details, including Chicago formatting for bibliographies.MLA
Modern Language Association (MLA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in the language arts, cultural studies, liberal arts, and humanities. MLA uses short parenthetical citations within the text that are linked to an alphabetical list of work cited at the end of the document. MLA commonly cites using this format: author's last name, first name, title, publication, edition or chapter, and year. See here for more details, including MLA formatting for bibliographies.AMA
American Medical Association (AMA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in medicine, biomedical research, nursing, dentistry, and other life sciences. AMA uses numerical superscript for citing sources in-text and refers to a list at the end of the work. These references appear in sequential order of when the sources were cited, instead of alphabetical order. See here for more details, including AMA formatting for bibliographies.Derived From: Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports from cities
