WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA

51,410 lines carrying $16,555,289

The headline pair is $16,555,289 and 51,410 lines. The implied average is about $322. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the WEST HOLLYWOOD book. Los Angeles County filers typed WEST HOLLYWOOD with state CA.

WEST HOLLYWOOD is not HOLLYWOOD. Filers who typed HOLLYWOOD created a different Los Angeles County key. Beverly Hills and LOS ANGELES are neighboring strings. State CA stays on the citation. The city total can include a PAC or joint-fundraising committee address when that is the city filers typed. LobbyVault does not recode those rows out of the city string. Read $16,555,289 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of West Hollywood gave. The 51,410 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints West Hollywood together with Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and Los Angeles, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $16,555,289 on 51,410 WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA rows, mean near $322. Keep the stored spelling WEST HOLLYWOOD in the citation.

Why WEST HOLLYWOOD on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in West Hollywood give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA total $16,555,289 across 51,410 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA is the stored city field. HOLLYWOOD is a different string when filers typed it.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $16,555,289. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $322 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA total $16,555,289 across 51,410 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of people who live in West Hollywood. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $322 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Is West Hollywood the same as Hollywood on FEC reports?

No. WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA is the stored city field. HOLLYWOOD is a different string when filers typed it. LobbyVault counts 51,410 itemized contributions for WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA against $16,555,289. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 51,410 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the West Hollywood total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed WEST HOLLYWOOD with state CA. Office addresses and mail that list West Hollywood can be part of $16,555,289 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 51,410-line count follows the same rule.

Are West Hollywood numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $16,555,289 and 51,410 lines for WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
