ZIP 33156: $44.7 million in FEC itemized receipts

Mid-volume dollars on ZIP 33156

$44,719,266 on 64,186 lines produces a mean near $697. That ratio is arithmetic, not a typical household gift and not a median. FEC.gov stored the ZIP that was filed. LobbyVault summed it. The packet publishes two facts: dollars and contribution count.

Sixty-four thousand one hundred eighty-six itemizations is a real filing stream. A few large committee receipts can still pull $44,719,266. Employer and occupation strings live on other LobbyVault views. 33156 is a geographic key, not a sector score.

A mean near $697 on 64,186 lines is a mid-band ratio. It does not prove a typical gift. FEC.gov did not publish a median for 33156. Keep $44,719,266 and 64,186 together so a reader can redo the division.

The 33156 field versus a neighborhood census

USPS 33156 is a five-digit mail code. FEC contributor ZIPs are not geocoded to parcels. A committee that lists 33156 will post to this total if that is the ZIP on the form. Individuals who use a home or office address with the same digits can do the same. $44,719,266 is therefore not resident giving in 33156.

The 64,186-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.

Researchers comparing 33156 to other Miami-area codes should keep both packet facts in the same sentence. $44,719,266 without 64,186 hides whether the total is a long list or a short list. 64,186 without $44,719,266 hides scale. FEC.gov published both. LobbyVault indexed both.

Boundaries of the $44,719,266 figure

Unitemized federal gifts are out. Florida state-office campaigns are out. Independent expenditures by a committee filing a different ZIP are out even if the communication mentions a Miami-Dade race. Cite $44,719,266 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 33156 on FEC.gov.

A mid-volume ZIP still moves when filers amend. After a major restatement, use the live ZIP 33156 FEC page rather than this snapshot. This prose is a snapshot of the aggregate indexed on LobbyVault.

Itemized-only scope still needs repeating. $44,719,266 never includes unitemized federal gifts and never includes Florida state-office money. Mixing those systems with this ZIP total leaves FEC.gov. This page stays on itemized receipts tagged 33156.

Comparing 33156 to other ZIP totals

The all-ZIP directory ranks the same FEC series. 33156’s mean sits between high-volume low-mean codes and short-list high-mean codes. That comparison describes filing shape. It does not describe who is more politically active. FEC.gov publishes receipts, not activity scores.

Independent expenditures mentioning a race near 33156 can be paid by a committee with a different ZIP. Those disbursements do not move $44,719,266. Keep the series separate.

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 $44,719,266 as the ZIP roll-up on the extract LobbyVault indexed, then confirm the live hub if you need a dated window.

How to follow the receipts

Open the ZIP 33156 FEC page for the current table. Use the all-ZIP directory to place $44,719,266 and 64,186 among other codes. Use the donor directory when you need names attached to itemized rows. Source for every dollar on this page: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

The live hub can disagree with this snapshot after an amendment. When the numbers differ, the later FEC.gov extract controls. LobbyVault indexes; it does not freeze $44,719,266.

How to cite 33156 without inflating a neighborhood

The accurate sentence is: itemized federal receipts with contributor ZIP 33156 total $44,719,266 across 64,186 contributions, according to FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. Adding a neighborhood census or a party split would be a new dataset. This packet does not contain either.

Unique donors are not in the packet. Party is not in the packet. Use the all-ZIP directory only to compare other codes on the same series. Use the donor directory for names. If the live hub reprints a different $44,719,266 or 64,186, the newer FEC extract wins.

Title, H1, and table on the live hub should show the same $44,719,266 and 64,186 this guide cites. If they do not, the hub was rebuilt from a newer extract. Trust the hub over this paragraph.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 33156?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 33156 total $44,719,266 across 64,186 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 $697 follows from dividing those two packet facts.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 33156?

LobbyVault counts 64,186 itemized contributions for ZIP 33156. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $44,719,266.

Does ZIP 33156 include only residents?

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 $44,719,266 when 33156 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 64,186-line count follows the same rule.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 33156 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $44,719,266 and 64,186 lines for ZIP 33156. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
