ENTERPRISE, AL: $18.5M on 7,644 FEC receipts

7,644 lines carrying $18,506,704

ENTERPRISE shows 7,644 itemizations behind $18,506,704. That mix is a thinner stack with a high average line relative to volume books that post similar dollars on 70,000-plus rows. The implied mean is about $2,421. Committee receipts that list a ENTERPRISE address still sit in the same column as individual rows.

Enterprise posts a thin Wiregrass stack: 7,644 lines against $18.5 million, a mean near $2,421. ENTERPRISE, AL is not Enterprise, Nevada. Birmingham is a different Jefferson County string. 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 $18,506,704 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of ENTERPRISE gave. The 7,644 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints ENTERPRISE together with Dothan, Ozark, and Fort Novosel, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $18,506,704 on 7,644 ENTERPRISE, AL rows, mean near $2,421. Keep the stored spelling ENTERPRISE in the citation.

Why ENTERPRISE on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Enterprise give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city ENTERPRISE, AL total $18,506,704 across 7,644 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. Seven thousand six hundred forty-four lines against $18,506,704 produce that mean. A short Coffee County file at this dollar scale can be dominated by large receipts.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $18,506,704. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $2,421 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

ENTERPRISE receipts versus local campaigns

A ENTERPRISE, AL tag records the contributor city on a federal itemization. It does not record where a ENTERPRISE candidate spent money. $18,506,704 can leave town. Unitemized federal gifts and AL state-office receipts sit outside the 7,644 lines.

Mail and office addresses that store ENTERPRISE still count. That is why Dothan, Ozark, and Fort Novosel should not be treated as the same book. About $2,421 per line is arithmetic on $18,506,704 and 7,644.

Reading ENTERPRISE against Birmingham

Place ENTERPRISE next to Birmingham only if both figures are contributor-city itemized federal receipts. A thin high-mean wiregrass book: 7,644 lines, $18,506,704, mean near $2,421.

Dothan, Ozark, and Fort Novosel remain other keys. Keep state AL so ENTERPRISE, AL is not added to a twin elsewhere. AL state-campaign totals are a different filing system than this FEC city extract.

AL ZIPs are not a substitute for ENTERPRISE

Do not back into a ENTERPRISE story from a ZIP you assume belongs there. This packet does not publish those codes. 7,644 city-field lines wait on the live hub and the ZIP directory for any geographic split.

Candidate quality, issue fights, and local election results are not in the packet. The extract’s numbers are $18,506,704 and 7,644 from FEC.gov for the city field ENTERPRISE, AL.

Packet facts for ENTERPRISE

$18,506,704 divided by 7,644 is about $2,421. Quote the pair. Quoting only the mean hides the line count. Repeat gifts add rows. Coffee County is the geography of the string, not a summed county total.

Dothan is next door on a map and separate on the tape. Cite $18,506,704 with 7,644 from FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. If the live ENTERPRISE hub disagrees with this snapshot, the newer FEC extract controls.

Researchers citing ENTERPRISE should keep state AL in the sentence so readers do not hunt a same-named place. The live city table can show named committees that this snapshot does not list. A later FEC extract can move $18,506,704 or 7,644 without this guide rewriting itself. Treat the mean near $2,421 as division only. Dothan, Ozark, and Fort Novosel remain other strings. The 7,644-line count still is not a headcount.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city ENTERPRISE, AL?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city ENTERPRISE, AL total $18,506,704 across 7,644 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 Enterprise. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $2,421 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Why is Enterprise’s average line near $2,421?

Seven thousand six hundred forty-four lines against $18,506,704 produce that mean. A short Coffee County file at this dollar scale can be dominated by large receipts. LobbyVault counts 7,644 itemized contributions for ENTERPRISE, AL against $18,506,704. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 7,644 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Enterprise total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed ENTERPRISE with state AL. Office addresses and mail that list Enterprise can be part of $18,506,704 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 7,644-line count follows the same rule.

Are Enterprise numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $18,506,704 and 7,644 lines for ENTERPRISE, AL. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from AL are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
