Federal contributions from ZIP 19106

Forty-five thousand Old City lines

$20,141,976 divided by 45,124 is about $446 per itemized line. Old City, Society Hill fringe, and overlapping Center City east mail share those five digits on Schedule A. That $446 figure is arithmetic from the packet, not a median gift and not a typical Philadelphia household.

Forty-five thousand one hundred twenty-four itemizations is a long receipt list. Repeat gifts, workplace itemizations, and bundled events can all add rows. 45,124 is not a headcount of people near Independence Mall.

No party share is attached to $20,141,976. 19106 is a geographic key on the contributor record. Cite 45,124 contributions with that total whenever the ZIP is quoted.

A Center City-east ZIP on FEC forms

19106 covers Old City and overlapping eastern Center City. A contributor who lists a home, an office, or a committee that files 19106 adds to $20,141,976 when that ZIP is on the itemization. Treating the total as household-only giving misstates the field.

The 45,124-line count includes memo entries and redesignations. This guide does not invent a person count the packet omitted. Philadelphia geography is orientation only.

What $20,141,976 leaves out

Unitemized federal gifts are out. Pennsylvania state campaign filings that never reach the FEC are out. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are out. Cite $20,141,976 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 19106, from FEC.gov.

An Old City ZIP still moves when schedules are amended. Recheck the ZIP 19106 FEC page after a restatement. Compare extract dates before treating two published totals as a contradiction.

19106 next to other Philadelphia codes

The all-ZIP directory ranks the same FEC series. 19102, 19103, or 19107 may show different means on different line counts. Those contrasts describe filing shape. FEC.gov does not score neighborhoods.

Do not add 19106 to another Center City code into a core total on this page. The file reports one key: 19106, $20,141,976, 45,124 contributions.

How researchers should quote 19106

The accurate citation is: itemized federal receipts with contributor ZIP 19106 total $20,141,976 across 45,124 contributions, per FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. A mean of about $446 describes filing shape, not a typical Old City gift. The packet has no median, no unique-donor count, and no party split.

Old City and eastern Center City mail on 19106 is orientation. FEC.gov stored a five-digit string. A home, an office, or a committee that filed 19106 adds to $20,141,976 when that ZIP is on the itemization. Treating 45,124 as unique people overstates the roster. Repeat gifts and memo entries lengthen the list without adding payers.

Do not add 19106 to 19102, 19103, or 19107 into a Center City total on this page. That recode is a new dataset. Pennsylvania state filings sit outside $20,141,976. Unitemized federal gifts sit outside it. If a later extract reprints a different pair, the live hub controls. This guide is a snapshot of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. Named receipts on the donor directory answer identity questions this 45,124-line roll-up cannot.

A researcher who only quotes $20,141,976 without 45,124 hides the $446 mean. Quote both. If a committee later amends the ZIP field on a large Old City row, both figures move. Recheck the ZIP 19106 FEC page. This file is a snapshot of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault, not an amendment log. LobbyVault indexes FEC.gov; it does not replace the Commission’s reports for ZIP 19106.
