Generic sector word, mid-width pool

$16,006,547 is the occupation-level dollar total. 46,849 is the itemization count. 3,409 is the donor-record count. Mean contribution size is about $342. Mean dollars per donor record are about $4,695. Repeat giving is about 14 itemizations per donor record.

3,409 donor records is a mid-width pool. The per-line mean of about $342 sits with other trade-adjacent strings that mix agents, brokers, underwriters, and office staff who all typed the same sector word.

The packet does not say whether the donor sold policies, underwrote risk, or worked in an insurance office. It only supplies the three INSURANCE facts.

INSURANCE is not broker and not agent

INSURANCE BROKER and INSURANCE AGENT are neighboring occupation keys in this harvest. This page cites only INSURANCE: $16,006,547, 46,849 contributions, and 3,409 donors. Those other strings stay outside the total unless the bulk extract normalized them to INSURANCE.

Best-efforts collection records the donor’s word. Someone who listed insurance salesperson, insurance, or insurance company as a shorthand may all land here if the extract stored INSURANCE. The FEC does not recode that noun into a standard occupational classification.
