This table presents the most recent figures on the size of the federal government's civilian workforce in each of the states. States in the second column are rank ordered by number of federal civilian employees in the third column. The first column reports the ranking. The fourth column reports each state's estimated population as of July 1, 2002. The fourth column then reports the 2003 population estimate for each locale and the fifth column lists federal government employment in each state as a percentage of the state's population. The sixth and last column calculates a hypothetical federal civilian workforce proportional to the population of each state like political representation in the House of Representatives.
