ZIP Code 12572

A $1,636 mean on 15,635 Hudson Valley lines

$25,571,621 divided by 15,635 is about $1,636 per itemized line. That mean is higher than many high-volume neighborhood ZIPs in the same dollar band. Fifteen thousand six hundred thirty-five rows against $25.6 million is a thinner receipt list, not a typical Rhinebeck household check, and the packet has no median.

A shorter list still is not a person count. Repeat gifts add rows. Large committee transfers, if present on the ZIP 12572 FEC page, can lift the mean without lifting occupancy. 15,635 is the line count on this extract, not a roster of people who live near the Hudson.

No party share is attached to $25,571,621. Employer strings sit on other LobbyVault views. 12572 is a geographic key on the contributor record. Cite 15,635 contributions with that total whenever the ZIP is quoted. Sort the live table by amount before treating the mean as a town story.

Rhinebeck five digits on the form

12572 covers Rhinebeck and overlapping Dutchess County mail. A contributor who lists a residential street, a village office, or a committee that files 12572 adds to $25,571,621 when that ZIP is on the itemization. Treating the total as household-only giving misstates the field, especially with a mean near $1,636.

The 15,635-line count includes memo entries and redesignations. This guide does not invent a person count the packet omitted. Hudson Valley geography is orientation only. The form field does not distinguish a farm road from letterhead.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 12572?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 12572 total $25,571,621 across 15,635 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 Rhinebeck residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $1,636 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 12572?

LobbyVault counts 15,635 itemized contributions for ZIP 12572. 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 $25,571,621.

Does ZIP 12572 include only Rhinebeck residents?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in the 12572 grid can be part of $25,571,621 when that is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 15,635-line count follows the same rule.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 12572 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $25,571,621 and 15,635 lines for ZIP 12572. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. New York State filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.
