Thirty-eight thousand lines, a $1,216 mean
$46,389,441 on 38,135 lines is a mid-list pattern. A mean near $1,216 can mix individual Schedule A rows with committee rows on the same five digits. FEC.gov does not label which of those categories produced the mean. LobbyVault reports the sum and the count. The typical line is not in this packet.
Thirty-eight thousand one hundred thirty-five itemizations is enough volume to be a real filing stream and small enough that a few large transfers still pull the mean. Do not read $1,216 as what a 02493 donor typically gives. No party share is attached to $46,389,441.
A mean near $1,216 on 38,135 lines sits above many volume ZIPs with similar dollars. That placement is filing shape, not a ranking of civic energy. Keep $46,389,441 and 38,135 in the same citation.
The 02493 field versus a neighborhood census
FEC contributor ZIPs are not geocoded to parcels. A committee that lists 02493 will post to this total if that is the ZIP on the form. Individuals who use a home, office, or seasonal address with the same digits can do the same. $46,389,441 is therefore not resident giving in 02493.
The 38,135-line count is an itemization count. Unique people are not totaled in this packet. Repeat gifts, reallocations, and memo items can inflate the line list without adding new contributors.
Researchers comparing 02493 to volume ZIPs with similar dollars should keep both packet facts in the same sentence. $46,389,441 without 38,135 hides whether the total is a long list or a short list. 38,135 without $46,389,441 hides scale. FEC.gov published both.

Questions
- How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 02493?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 02493 total $46,389,441 across 38,135 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $1,216 follows from dividing those two packet facts.
- How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 02493?
- LobbyVault counts 38,135 itemized contributions for ZIP 02493. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $46,389,441.
- Does ZIP 02493 include only residents?
- No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. PAC mail drops, joint fundraising committees, and office addresses can be part of $46,389,441 when 02493 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 38,135-line count follows the same rule.
- Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 02493 totals?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $46,389,441 and 38,135 lines for ZIP 02493. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commissionβs filing controls.
ZIP is the 5-digit contributor ZIP on FEC itemizations. Totals can include joint fundraising and PAC addresses, not only residents.
