PermalinkConcoMan - let's do the numbers : San Angelo County Pop: 118.169, grant $388,646. = $3.29 per capita.
Taylor County (Abilene) Pop: 137,640, grant $512,000. = $3.72 per capita. Given Abilene sits on an interstate, increasing their risk considerably, and San Angelo does not - I would say the 57 cents per capita difference is quite reasonable
