Key figures

A federal-core ZIP with six-figure line volume
$143,592,452 divided by 111,235 is about $1,290 per itemized line. That mean sits below 20005 and 20036 on this wave and above Georgetown’s 20007. 20004 mixes museum-and-office geography with committee mail. FEC.gov does not split those groups in this ZIP total. LobbyVault reports $143,592,452 and 111,235.
One hundred eleven thousand two hundred thirty-five itemizations is a volume list, not a unique-person count. Repeat givers, agency-adjacent office addresses, and PAC mail all add rows. This packet has no donor headcount. Cite 111,235 as a contribution-line total.
No party split is attached to $143,592,452. Proximity to federal buildings is orientation. It is not an FEC finding about who “owns” Penn Quarter. The Commission stores a ZIP string.
Keep 20004 separate from 20005 and 20006
Downtown D.C. codes are separate FEC keys. 20005 and 20006 have their own dollar totals and line counts. This page cites only 20004. Adding the three ZIPs is a recode. FEC.gov did not publish a combined downtown figure here.
A PAC or joint fundraising committee that lists a 20004 suite still posts that ZIP when it is on Schedule A. Household rows are fewer in a commercial core, but they are not excluded by a residential filter — because this aggregate has no such filter. Open the ZIP 20004 FEC page for named receipts.

Questions
- How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 20004?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 20004 total $143,592,452 across 111,235 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 people who live in Penn Quarter and Federal Triangle. Joint fundraising committees and PAC addresses can appear in $143,592,452 when that five-digit code was filed. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
- How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 20004?
- LobbyVault counts 111,235 itemized contributions for ZIP 20004. 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, so 111,235 should not be quoted as a population. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $143,592,452.
- Does ZIP 20004 include only residents of Penn Quarter and Federal Triangle?
- No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. PAC mail drops, joint fundraising committees, and office addresses in Penn Quarter and Federal Triangle can be part of $143,592,452 when 20004 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 111,235-line count follows the same rule. Open named receipts on the ZIP hub to see which committees appear.
- Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 20004 totals?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $143,592,452 and 111,235 lines for ZIP 20004. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from Penn Quarter and Federal Triangle are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $1,290 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.
