How Self-Employed meets Greenwich
This page is a join. One dimension is contributor city Greenwich, CT. The other is self-employment occupation string Self-Employed (stored as SELF-EMPLOYED). $29,350 is the intersection — dollars on receipts that carry both labels. $281,199,418 is the city bucket before the employer filter, built from 194,308 itemized lines. The harvested donor count inside the intersection is 10 donors, not a census of everyone in Greenwich who ever worked in a related trade.
LobbyVault does not add a third table and does not route these dollars through USAspending. A Form 3 itemization is not a federal award. Open the Greenwich, CT city hub for the unfiltered city book, the Self-Employed industry hub for the grouping outside this city filter, Connecticut campaign finance for the state roll-up, and All FEC ties for sibling joins. Each of those pages answers a different question. This one answers only the intersection.
27 contributions from 10 donors produced $29,350. Repeat gifts add receipts; 10 donors is the headcount in this extract for the join, not a Census of Self-Employed workers in Greenwich. Arithmetic mean per receipt is about $1,087; per donor, about $2,935. Those means are division of packet facts, not typical salaries and not medians.
What the Greenwich city book holds
Greenwich indexes $281,199,418 ($281 million rounded) on 194,308 itemized individual contributions. City labels are filer-entered. A suburb that types a different city never enters $281,199,418. Joint-fundraising and committee addresses that happen to list Greenwich can sit in the same bucket as residents. The packet does not publish a unique-donor count for the city as a whole, so this page does not invent one from 194,308.
Connecticut campaign-finance pages cover the state, which is a larger geography than Greenwich. Do not treat $281,199,418 as the CT state total. Unitemized federal gifts never carry a published city in this roll-up, so they never enter $281,199,418. State-office campaigns in Connecticut file under state law and sit outside these FEC individual-contribution aggregates. Greenwich, CT is a distinct city string from New York or Stamford. Cross-border addresses that stored another city never enter this book.
The Self-Employed slice inside Greenwich
Inside Greenwich, receipts tagged Self-Employed total $29,350 on 27 lines from 10 donors. That is under 0.1% of $281,199,418. About $1,087 per receipt is $29,350 divided by 27. About $2,935 per harvested donor is $29,350 divided by 10. Those ratios describe shape. They are not medians, not typical household gifts, and not salaries.
Self-Employed is a self-typed occupation string, not a license roster and not a Census class of independent contractors. Nearby labels such as SELF, SELF EMPLOYED, and SELF-EMPLOYED can be separate keys depending on punctuation. $29,350 counts only rows that stored this exact string with city GREENWICH.
Repeat gifts, household pairs, and spelling variants of Self-Employed that did not match this key never enter $29,350. Repeat gifts that did match add to 27 without necessarily adding to 10. Keep line count and donor count attached to their nouns when citing Greenwich.
What this join is not
It is not a ranking of Greenwich neighborhoods. It is not a safety comparison. It is not proof that Self-Employed money funded a federal contract, grant, or loan. Campaign contributions and USAspending awards are different disclosure systems even when they mention the same city. This packet has no award dollars, so this page prints none.
It is not Self-Employed nationwide unless the industry hub — a different page — is cited separately, and this packet does not harvest that nationwide integer. It is not a PAC independent-expenditure total. Motive is not a field. Party split is not a field in this packet. Missing fields stay missing.
under 0.1% is $29,350 divided by $281,199,418. Rounding the city total to $281 million does not create a second extract. Use $281,199,418 in a table. Use $281 million only as a headline form of the same integer. Correlation is not causation: two filer-entered fields meeting is not evidence that Self-Employed “controls” Greenwich politics.
How to cite the Greenwich × Self-Employed facts
Citation template: self-employment occupation string Self-Employed, contributor city Greenwich, CT, $29,350 on 27 itemized individual contributions from 10 donors, against a city-wide $281,199,418 on 194,308 contributions (under 0.1% of city dollars). Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. City labels are filer-entered.
Then send the reader to the live Greenwich, CT hub, the Self-Employed industry page, Connecticut campaign finance, and All FEC ties. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live hubs control. Do not add $29,350 to $281,199,418; the first number is already inside the second.
Using the Greenwich and Self-Employed hubs together
The Greenwich, CT hub is the unfiltered city index: $281,199,418 on 194,308 lines. The Self-Employed hub is the grouping without this city’s filter; this packet does not print that nationwide integer, so do not guess it from $29,350. Connecticut campaign finance is the state roll-up, a larger geography than Greenwich. All FEC ties is the inventory of other two-table pages. Use all four links. None of them turns $29,350 into a federal award.
If you need names, open the live city and industry hubs rather than reverse-engineering 10 donors from this snapshot. If you need cycle cuts of Greenwich, those are city-cycle joins, not this file. If you need Self-Employed in a single even-year window, those are industry-cycle joins. This file stays on one city and one employer string: Greenwich and Self-Employed, $29,350, 27 receipts, 10 donors.
