Fiscal data: distributions from the state

What the Florida Department of Revenue paid the governments in Escambia County in the 12 months to Sep 2026, from the Department's own ledger: half-cent sales tax, communications services tax, local option taxes and state revenue sharing. Fiscal distributions, not economic indicators: these are the dollars the Florida Department of Revenue paid this government in each month, after the state's own deductions and adjustments, on the Department's payment schedule. They do not measure sales, income or activity in the area.
