ZIP 94103: $18.1 million across 40,987 FEC lines

SoMa is an office ZIP as often as a home ZIP

$18,134,953 divided by 40,987 is about $442 per itemized line. South of Market mixes lofts, civic buildings, and company headquarters. The FEC field does not distinguish those uses. The packet publishes a dollar total and a contribution count. It does not publish a unique-donor count or an employer split.

Forty thousand nine hundred eighty-seven contributions is a working list. Workplace addresses, household addresses, and any committee that files 94103 all add rows. Do not treat 40,987 as a census of SoMa residents.

LobbyVault does not attach a tech-campus story to $18,134,953. The source is FEC.gov receipts tagged 94103.

SoMa’s 94103 key is a workplace magnet. $18,134,953 across 40,987 contributions should be quoted as a mail-key total, not as a loft census. Civic buildings and company headquarters can appear in named receipts. This packet does not split them. The $442 mean is arithmetic. Recheck the ZIP 94103 FEC page after quarterly filings. Mission Bay is 94107, a different roll-up. FEC.gov remains the original filing.

One five-digit key for a mixed grid

94103 covers SoMa from the Civic Center edge toward Mission Bay. A filer who lists a workplace, a filer who lists a loft, and a joint fundraising committee that uses a 94103 suite all land in the same bucket. $18,134,953 is that bucket. It is not a resident-only book.

Named receipts on the ZIP 94103 FEC page are the way to see which committees appear. This guide will not invent a split inside 40,987 lines.

Federal itemization, not city or state money

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $18,134,953. California state-office campaigns sit outside. San Francisco municipal filings sit outside. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP sit outside even if they mention a Bay Area race.

A restated joint-fundraising block can move the dollar headline more than hundreds of small lines. Recheck the live hub after quarterly filings. This prose is a snapshot of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

SoMa’s 94103 key absorbs civic-center and company mail. $18,134,953 across 40,987 contributions is that bucket. Workplace rows and loft rows are not labeled separately in this packet. Keep 40,987 as a line count. This packet has no unique-donor count. The $442 mean is a ratio of the two facts.

Do not treat 94103 as San Francisco. Other keys carry the rest of the city. Recheck the ZIP 94103 FEC page after quarterly filings. The all-ZIP directory is the inventory. Named receipts show which committees appear. FEC.gov controls if a later extract disagrees with $18,134,953.

94103 beside 94107 and 94102

Mission Bay and Civic Center are different mail keys. Adding them to 94103 and calling the sum a San Francisco FEC total is a recode you must document. This page reports $18,134,953 for 94103 only.

The all-ZIP directory is the inventory for that comparison. Compare 40,987 against those peers rather than against a Tulsa ZIP with 26,000 lines. Filing shape is local to how addresses were entered.

Filtering the donor directory to 94103 should reconcile to the ZIP hub, not to a homemade $442 average. When a name search and 40,987 disagree, the ZIP roll-up is the geographic total.

SoMa office mail without a citywide San Francisco sum

If a later Commission extract reprints 94103, compare it to $18,134,953 and 40,987 on the live hub before quoting this snapshot. SoMa workplace mail can restated in a block. Named receipts remain the way to see committees. The donor directory is not a second copy of those two facts.
