Wellesley Hills dollars and 33,668 lines

$28,336,118 divided by 33,668 is about $842 per itemized line. That mean sits with other west-of-Boston suburban codes: tens of thousands of rows, dollars in the high $20 millions, no median in the packet. The average is a ratio, not a typical Wellesley household check.

Thirty-three thousand six hundred sixty-eight itemizations is a long receipt list. Repeat gifts, workplace itemizations, and bundled events can all add rows. 33,668 is not a headcount of people who live near Wellesley Square or along Route 9.

No party share is attached to $28,336,118. Employer strings sit on other LobbyVault views. 02481 is a geographic key on the contributor record. Cite 33,668 contributions with that total whenever the ZIP is quoted.

A Norfolk County ZIP on FEC forms

02481 covers Wellesley Hills and overlapping Wellesley mail. A contributor who lists a residential street, a local office, or a committee that files 02481 adds to $28,336,118 when that ZIP is on the itemization. Treating the total as household-only giving misstates the field.

The 33,668-line count includes memo entries and redesignations. This guide does not invent a person count the packet omitted. Inner-suburb geography is orientation only.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 02481?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 02481 total $28,336,118 across 33,668 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Wellesley Hills residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $842 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 02481?
LobbyVault counts 33,668 itemized contributions for ZIP 02481. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. Those rows are itemized Schedule A lines, not people. The matching dollar total is $28,336,118.
Does ZIP 02481 include only Wellesley Hills residents?
No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in the 02481 grid can be part of $28,336,118 when that is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 33,668-line count follows the same rule.
Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 02481 totals?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $28,336,118 and 33,668 lines for ZIP 02481. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Massachusetts state filings are outside both figures. LobbyVault is the index, not the filing system. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.

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