ZIP 75248: $18.5 million across 46,676 FEC lines

Neither a mega-volume ZIP nor a thin one

$18,466,638 divided by 46,676 is about $396 per itemized line. That mid-mean sits between high-volume Puget Sound codes with $200-range averages and Westchester codes with fewer lines and higher dollars per row. The packet gives two facts. It does not give a unique-donor count, a party split, or a map of which North Dallas streets produced the money.

Forty-six thousand six hundred seventy-six contributions is a substantial list. Repeat givers, household pairs, and any committee that files a 75248 address all add rows. Do not treat 46,676 as a census of people who live north of LBJ. This packet has no donor headcount.

LobbyVault does not interpret $18,466,638 as a Dallas political identity. The source is FEC.gov itemized receipts tagged 75248. The arithmetic is public. The motives are not.

Suburban Dallas mail, federal Schedule A rules

75248 covers a stretch of Far North Dallas that filers use as a household ZIP and, at times, as an office ZIP. A PAC suite or a joint fundraising committee that lists 75248 still posts that code. $18,466,638 follows the form. It is not a resident-only book and not a downtown Dallas book.

The 46,676-line count can include memo entries and redesignations. Open the ZIP 75248 FEC page for named receipts. This guide will not guess which rows are households and which are entities.

Exclusions from the $18,466,638 roll-up

Unitemized federal gifts are omitted. Texas state-office campaigns are omitted. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted even if they mention a Dallas race. Cite $18,466,638 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 75248, from FEC.gov.

Amendments can restated large transfers without touching most of the 46,676 small lines. Recheck the live hub after quarterly filings. This prose is a snapshot of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

A contributor who gives twice is two lines. A redesignation can be another line. Subtracting duplicates without a documented match key would manufacture a total other than $18,466,638. Leave 46,676 as a contribution-line count.

Far North Dallas mail is easy to confuse with Collin County keys that look suburban on a map. 75248 is the five-digit field as filed. A Richardson or Plano address is a different ZIP even if the school district overlaps. $18,466,638 does not include those codes. Keep 46,676 as the 75248 contribution-line total. The all-ZIP directory is where those neighbors sit, each with its own roll-up.

Do not annualize $18,466,638. The aggregate is not labeled as a single cycle in this packet. Multi-cycle itemizations can sit in one ZIP total. Quote the two facts you have. If a later FEC.gov extract prints a different dollar figure, the Commission’s filing wins. The donor directory lists names; it does not replace 46,676.

Reading 75248 next to other Dallas codes

The all-ZIP directory ranks the same series. Nearby North Dallas and Collin County codes often show different means. Compare 46,676 against those peers rather than against an island ZIP with 80,000 lines. Filing shape is local to how addresses were entered.

Stacking Far North Dallas with Addison, Plano, or downtown Dallas ZIPs is a common recode. This page does not perform it. $18,466,638 is the 75248 key only. If you build a metro total, list every ZIP you included.

Tables that hold the two counts

The ZIP 75248 FEC page holds $18,466,638 and 46,676 as currently indexed. The all-ZIP directory places the code among others. The donor directory lists names on itemized receipts. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov controls.

Filtering the donor directory to 75248 should reconcile to the ZIP hub, not to a homemade average of $396. When a name search and 46,676 disagree, the ZIP roll-up is the geographic total. No income map is attached to this figure.

How to quote 75248 without building a Dallas metro sum

Far North Dallas shares a metro with dozens of other five-digit keys. $18,466,638 is only 75248. Adding Plano, Richardson, or downtown Dallas codes produces a homemade metro figure that FEC.gov did not publish. If you need that figure, list every ZIP and keep 46,676 as the 75248 line count only. The all-ZIP directory is the inventory for that work.

The mean of about $396 is a ratio, not a typical-person gift. One large committee transfer and many small household rows can average to the same number. Open named receipts on the ZIP 75248 FEC page before describing the mix. This packet does not split entity types and does not publish a unique-donor count.

Texas state filings sit outside $18,466,638. So do unitemized federal gifts. A later quarterly extract can restated a joint-fundraising block without touching most of the 46,676 small lines. Recheck the live hub. LobbyVault indexes FEC.gov; it does not replace the Commission’s file. When a name search in the donor directory disagrees with 46,676, the ZIP roll-up is the geographic total.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 75248?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 75248 total $18,466,638 across 46,676 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Far North Dallas residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $396 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 75248?

LobbyVault counts 46,676 itemized contributions for ZIP 75248. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $18,466,638.

Is ZIP 75248 only individual gifts from North Dallas homes?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office addresses and committees that file 75248 can be part of $18,466,638 when that is what was entered. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. Open named receipts on the ZIP hub to see which committees appear.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 75248 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $18,466,638 and 46,676 lines for ZIP 75248. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and Texas state filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
