Federal contributions itemized with ZIP 77054

A $3,750 mean on 5,065 Medical Center lines

Divide $18,994,749 by 5,065 and the mean line is about $3,750. That is not a typical Medical Center household gift. Compact institutional codes often mix hospital letterhead, committee mail drops, and a thin residential list. The $3,750 figure is arithmetic from the packet, not a median and not a per-person average.

Five thousand sixty-five itemizations is a short list next to high-volume Houston suburb ZIPs that carry tens of thousands of lines. Repeat gifts still add rows. 5,065 is a line count, not a roster of people who live near Fannin and Old Spanish Trail.

The packet attaches no party split to $18,994,749 and no unique-donor field. Employer strings live elsewhere on LobbyVault. Quote 77054 with both $18,994,749 and 5,065 contributions. A mean near four thousand dollars is a prompt to inspect the largest lines before treating the ZIP as a neighborhood census.

What the 77054 field actually records

On FEC itemizations, 77054 is the contributor ZIP as filed. A medical-campus suite, a residential tower, or a committee that uses 77054 on its report all feed $18,994,749 when that is the five-digit key. Recoding the field into a household-only book would invent a filter the Commission does not apply here.

Memo entries and redesignations sit inside the 5,065-line count. This guide will not invent a person count the packet left out. Medical Center geography orients the map; it does not change the form field. Harris County is not a substitute for the five digits.

Boundaries of the $18,994,749 roll-up

Unitemized federal gifts never enter $18,994,749. Texas Ethics Commission filings never enter it. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP never enter it. Cite the total only as itemized federal receipts tagged 77054, from FEC.gov.

77030 (core Medical Center), 77005 (West University), and other Houston codes have their own hubs. Rank them on the all-ZIP index. Do not add those totals to $18,994,749. A Medical Center combined figure is a recode this packet does not contain.

Why the mean is high and the line count is short

A $3,750 mean on 5,065 lines is an institutional-mail shape, not a finding that south Medical Center residents write larger checks than Sugar Land. Sort the ZIP 77054 FEC page by amount. If the top rows are committee names, the mean is doing committee work. If they are personal names, note that instead. Either way, 5,065 remains a receipt count.

The all-ZIP directory ranks dollars. 77054 can sit near a high-volume suburb on dollars while ranking far below it on line count. That gap is filing shape. FEC.gov publishes both numbers. It does not score a campus ZIP as more engaged than a town ZIP.

Where to continue from 77054

The ZIP 77054 FEC page lists the table behind $18,994,749. 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 5,065-line count, the newer FEC extract wins. A mean near $3,750 follows from division and is not a median Houston resident.

Medical Center-edge mail versus 77030

77054 sits on the south edge of the Texas Medical Center. 77030 is the core campus code and a different hub. Do not add them to $18,994,749. Five thousand sixty-five lines against a $3,750 mean is institutional-mail shape. Sort the ZIP 77054 FEC page by amount. If the top rows are committee names, the mean is doing committee work.

Texas Ethics Commission filings sit outside this table. West University 77005 stays separate. The donor directory is the name-level path. Recheck the live hub after large filings. Cite $18,994,749 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 77054, according to FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.
