Key figures

  • ZIP 30309 FEC itemizations total $36,504,618 on 93,801 receipts.
  • Mean itemized amount is about $389.
  • 30309 is a Midtown Atlanta mailing code, not a citywide combined total.
  • Unique donor counts are not in this packet.

Midtown volume on 93,801 federal lines

Ninety-three thousand eight hundred one itemized receipts add to $36,504,618. The mean is about $389 per line ($36,504,618 / 93,801). That pairing is a high-volume in-town pattern: many receipts, a few-hundred-dollar mean, eight-figure dollars. A mean in that band usually means many modest itemizations with a thinner tail of larger checks.

Sort the ZIP 30309 FEC page by amount to inspect the tail. The mean can look ordinary even if a few transfers are large, because 93,801 lines dilute them. Receipt count is not unique people. This packet has no donor-distinct figure. Treat 93,801 as lines on committee reports, not as a census of Midtown.

Atlanta is not a single ZIP. 30309 is one Midtown code. Buckhead, Downtown, and Sandy Springs codes have their own hubs. Rank them on the all-ZIP index. Adding 30309 to those codes is a recode FEC.gov did not publish on this table.

What 30309 is not

The aggregate is not a Georgia state-ethics total and not a city of Atlanta campaign report. It is federal itemizations from FEC.gov. It is also not a party index. FEC schedules do not score ZIP codes by ideology, and this packet does not invent one.

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $36,504,618. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted even if they mention a Georgia race. Occupation and employer strings live on individual receipts. This ZIP rollup does not tally them. A corporate-HQ story that cites $36,504,618 without opening those strings is using a ZIP total as a substitute for an employer table it does not have.

30309 versus other Atlanta codes

Midtown is a place name. ZIP 30309 is a five-digit FEC field. $36,504,618 across 93,801 lines is the indexed pair. Park geography is orientation. It is not an FEC finding about in-town giving habits. Employer, occupation, and recipient tables sit elsewhere.

The all-ZIP directory ranks dollars. 30309’s rank on dollars will not automatically match its rank on line count. Compare 93,801 receipts against a thinner Georgia ZIP as filing shape. FEC.gov publishes both. It does not crown a more engaged neighborhood.

Reading the $389 mean

Confirm the largest rows on the hub table. If they are committee names, note them. If they are personal names, note that instead. Either way, 93,801 remains a receipt count. The accurate comparison with another ZIP uses both dollars and line count, not dollars alone.

Cycle windows matter even when this packet does not print a cycle year. $36,504,618 is the indexed aggregate as harvested. Recheck the live ZIP 30309 FEC page after large filings. FEC.gov remains the source.

Where to continue from 30309

The ZIP 30309 FEC page lists the table behind $36,504,618. The all-ZIP index ranks other codes. The donor directory is the name-level path. This copy uses only the packet’s total and contribution count. Cycle splits, party labels, and occupation tallies are omitted because they are not packet facts. If the live hub reprints a different total or 93,801-line count, the newer FEC extract wins. A mean near $389 follows from division and is not a median Midtown resident.

Midtown 30309 versus Buckhead and downtown Atlanta codes

In-town Atlanta has several contributor ZIPs. 30309 is Midtown around Piedmont Park. $36,504,618 across 93,801 lines should be quoted as that mailing code, not as ‘Atlanta giving.’ Adding 30309 to Buckhead or Downtown is a recode this packet does not contain. Rank those codes on the all-ZIP index instead.

The $389 mean on 93,801 lines is a high-volume in-town shape. Quote the line count with the dollars. Sort the ZIP 30309 FEC page by amount. This packet has no unique-donor count. Cite 93,801 as receipts, not as people who live near the park. Employer strings sit on rows, not in this rollup.

Georgia state filings sit outside $36,504,618. Use the donor directory for names. If the live hub reprints a different total or 93,801-line count, FEC.gov controls. Cite $36,504,618 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 30309, according to FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.
