Key figures

  • ZIP 02467 FEC itemizations total $36,620,000 across 48,812 contributions.
  • The mean line is about $750.
  • 02467 is a Chestnut Hill mailing code, not a Newton or Brookline combined total.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Chestnut Hill mail on 48,812 federal lines

Forty-eight thousand eight hundred twelve itemized receipts add to $36,620,000. The mean is about $750 per line ($36,620,000 / 48,812). That pairing is a suburban-in-the-metro volume pattern: tens of thousands of lines, a mid-hundreds mean, eight-figure dollars. A mean in that band usually means many modest itemizations with a thinner tail of larger checks.

Sort the ZIP 02467 FEC page by amount to inspect the tail. The mean can look stable even if a few transfers are large, because 48,812 lines dilute them. Receipt count is not unique people. This packet has no donor-distinct figure. Treat 48,812 as lines on committee reports, not as a census of Chestnut Hill.

Newton and Brookline are not a single ZIP. 02467 is one Chestnut Hill code. Other Newton, Brookline, and Boston codes have their own hubs. Rank them on the all-ZIP index. Adding 02467 to those codes is a recode FEC.gov did not publish on this table.

What $36,620,000 leaves out

The aggregate is not a Massachusetts Office of Campaign and Political Finance total and not a Newton or Brookline municipal report. It is federal itemizations from FEC.gov. It is also not a party index. FEC schedules do not score ZIP codes by ideology, and this packet does not invent one.

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $36,620,000. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted even if they mention a Massachusetts race. Occupation and employer strings live on individual receipts. This ZIP rollup does not tally them. A university-or-hospital story that cites $36,620,000 without opening those strings is using a ZIP total as a substitute for an employer table it does not have.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 02467?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 02467 total $36,620,000 across 48,812 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Chestnut Hill. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 02467?
LobbyVault counts 48,812 itemized contributions for ZIP 02467. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $36,620,000.
Does 02467 cover all of Newton and Brookline?
No. 02467 is one five-digit code used in Chestnut Hill. Other Newton and Brookline ZIPs have separate FEC hubs with their own dollar totals. Compare them on the all-ZIP index. The $36,620,000 figure is only the itemizations labeled 02467.
Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 02467 totals?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $36,620,000 and 48,812 lines for ZIP 02467. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $750 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

ZIP is the 5-digit contributor ZIP on FEC itemizations. Totals can include joint fundraising and PAC addresses, not only residents.
