ZIP Code 10018

A $1,188 mean on 23,258 Midtown lines

Divide $27,622,006 by 23,258 and the mean line is about $1,188. Midtown commercial codes often mix office letterhead with a thinner residential list than Chelsea or the Upper West Side. That $1,188 figure is arithmetic from the packet, not a median gift and not a typical Garment District household.

Twenty-three thousand two hundred fifty-eight itemizations is a substantial receipt list, shorter than some high-volume Manhattan neighborhood ZIPs. Repeat gifts still add rows. 23,258 is a line count, not a roster of people who live near Herald Square or Seventh Avenue.

The packet attaches no party split to $27,622,006 and no unique-donor field. Employer strings live elsewhere on LobbyVault. Quote 10018 with both $27,622,006 and 23,258 contributions. A higher mean than a dense residential ZIP is a prompt to inspect the largest lines.

What the 10018 field actually records

On FEC itemizations, 10018 is the contributor ZIP as filed. A Seventh Avenue office, a loft, or a committee that uses 10018 on its report all feed $27,622,006 when that is the five-digit key. Recoding the field into a household-only book would invent a filter the Commission does not apply here.

Memo entries and redesignations sit inside the 23,258-line count. This guide will not invent a person count the packet left out. Midtown geography orients the map; it does not change the form field.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 10018?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 10018 total $27,622,006 across 23,258 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 Garment District residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $1,188 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 10018?

LobbyVault counts 23,258 itemized contributions for ZIP 10018. 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 $27,622,006.

Does ZIP 10018 include only Garment District residents?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in the 10018 grid can be part of $27,622,006 when that is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 23,258-line count follows the same rule.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 10018 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $27,622,006 and 23,258 lines for ZIP 10018. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. New York State filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.
