Fewer lines than neighboring Manhattan codes
$43,210,848 on 25,914 lines is a concentration pattern relative to ZIPs that carry similar dollars on 100,000 rows. A mean near $1,667 is a ratio, not a typical household gift. FEC.gov does not label which rows produced the mean. LobbyVault reports the sum and the count.
Twenty-five thousand nine hundred fourteen itemizations is enough volume to be a real filing stream and small enough that a few large transfers still dominate the mean. Do not read $1,667 as what a 10020 donor typically gives. The typical line is not in this packet. The mean is arithmetic. No party split is published on this ZIP total.
A mean near $1,667 on 25,914 lines sits above many volume ZIPs with similar dollars. That placement is filing shape, not a lifestyle statistic. Keep $43,210,848 and 25,914 in the same sentence so a reader can redo the division.
The 10020 ZIP field versus a census
FEC contributor ZIPs are not geocoded to parcels. A committee that lists 10020 will post to this total if that is the ZIP on the form. Individuals who live elsewhere and use an office address can do the same. $43,210,848 is therefore not resident giving in 10020.
The 25,914-line count is an itemization count. Unique people are not totaled in this packet. Repeat gifts, reallocations, and memo items can inflate the line list without adding new contributors.
Commercial mail ZIPs like 10020 are easy to misread as resident books. FEC.gov stored the ZIP that was filed. $43,210,848 across 25,914 lines is what that field sums to in this aggregate. A mean near $1,667 follows from division. Unique donors are not in the packet.
Boundaries of the $43,210,848 figure
Unitemized federal gifts are out. New York State-office campaigns are out. Independent expenditures by a committee filing a different ZIP are out even if the communication mentions a New York race. Cite $43,210,848 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 10020 on FEC.gov.
Joint-fundraising restatements can move this ZIP more than a high-volume residential code of similar dollars, because large committees can cluster on commercial mail codes. After a major amendment, use the live ZIP 10020 FEC page rather than this snapshot.
Itemized-only scope still needs repeating. $43,210,848 never includes unitemized federal gifts and never includes New York State campaign money. A citation that adds those systems has left FEC.gov. This page stays on itemized receipts tagged 10020.
Comparing 10020 to other ZIP totals
The all-ZIP directory ranks the same FEC series. 10020’s mean is higher than many ZIPs that show more than 100,000 lines and a similar or smaller dollar total. That comparison describes filing shape. It does not describe who is more politically active. FEC.gov publishes receipts, not activity scores.
If you rank ZIPs by mean instead of by $43,210,848, 10020 jumps because 25,914 is smaller than volume peers. Ranking by mean is a derived view. State it as arithmetic from $43,210,848 and 25,914 so a reader can redo the division.
Cycle coverage in the underlying bulk files can span more than one election. This guide does not invent a cycle list because the packet does not include one. Treat $43,210,848 as the ZIP roll-up on the extract LobbyVault indexed, then confirm the live hub if you need a dated window.

Questions
- How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 10020?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 10020 total $43,210,848 across 25,914 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $1,667 follows from dividing those two packet facts.
- Why is the mean higher for ZIP 10020?
- 25,914 itemized lines against $43,210,848 produces a mean near $1,667. That arithmetic is a scale check, not a typical household gift. Large committee and joint-fundraising receipts posted to a 10020 mail ZIP can dominate the mean. The packet has no median and no unique-donor count. Cite both $43,210,848 and 25,914.

- No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. PAC mail drops, joint fundraising committees, and office addresses can be part of $43,210,848 when 10020 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 25,914-line count follows the same rule.

Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
