Federal contributions from ZIP 77007

Inner Loop dollars on 50,873 receipts

Fifty thousand eight hundred seventy-three itemized receipts add to $24,220,189. The mean is about $476 per line ($24,220,189 / 50,873). That is a mid-volume Houston ZIP: tens of thousands of lines, a mean in the mid-four hundreds, and an eight-figure total. The mean is a quotient, not a typical Rice Military household gift.

Houston’s Inner Loop is a patchwork of five-digit codes. 77007 is the Washington Avenue corridor, not the Galleria, not Montrose, not Upper Kirby. Those codes have their own FEC hubs. Rank them on the all-ZIP index. Adding them to $24,220,189 invents a city sum this packet does not contain.

This packet has no unique-donor count. Cite 50,873 as itemized lines on committee reports. Sort the ZIP 77007 FEC page by amount to see whether the tail is personal names or committee transfers. Inner Loop Houston has several eight-figure tags in this batch. 77007’s facts are $24,220,189 and 50,873 receipts. Citing those figures as “Houston west of downtown” over-claims the five-digit field. Washington Avenue and Rice Military are the geography; other corridors have other hubs. The all-ZIP index is how to line them up without adding them.

Federal energy-city money is still FEC-only

Searchers often want an oil-and-gas Houston story. This packet does not tally employers. Occupation strings live on individual receipts. Quoting $24,220,189 as an energy-industry total is using a ZIP as a substitute for an employer table.

Texas Ethics Commission state-office filings sit outside $24,220,189. Keep the federal ZIP total as a federal ZIP total. Mixing TEC and FEC money invents a Houston figure this packet does not contain. Washington Avenue’s rebuild put new apartments next to older lots. Fifty thousand eight hundred seventy-three receipts can come from both. $24,220,189 does not distinguish them. The ZIP 77007 FEC page is the place to see names. This copy will not invent an energy-corridor employer tally. Inner Loop Houston in this batch includes 77006, 77057, and 77098 as separate hubs. Do not add those totals to $24,220,189. Each packet’s facts stay on their own page. The all-ZIP index is the ranking surface.

What 77007 is not

The aggregate is not a City of Houston campaign report and not a Harris County election-board total. It is federal itemizations from FEC.gov. It is not a party index. FEC schedules do not score ZIP codes by ideology.

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $24,220,189. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted even if they mention a Texas race. The five-digit field is the contributor ZIP as filed, not a proof of residency on Washington Avenue.

Comparing Houston codes without adding them

Use both $24,220,189 and 50,873 lines. A similar dollar total on a different Inner Loop code can hide a different mean. The all-ZIP index is the ranking surface. This packet does not assign 77007 a national rank.

The harvested total is $24,220,189. Recheck the live hub after large filings. If a later extract disagrees with that total or with 50,873, the newer FEC.gov file wins.

Where to continue from 77007

The ZIP 77007 FEC page lists the table behind $24,220,189. The all-ZIP index ranks other codes. The donor directory is the name-level path. Cycle splits, party labels, and occupation tallies are omitted because they are not packet facts. A mean near $476 follows from division and is not a median Inner Loop resident. Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

A $476 mean on 50,873 lines is a mid-volume shape. Repeat givers can occupy many rows. Cite 50,873 as receipts, not people. Recheck the live hub after large filings. If a later extract disagrees with $24,220,189 or 50,873, the newer FEC.gov file wins. Unitemized gifts and out-of-ZIP independent expenditures remain outside the total.
