ZIP Code 22219

Half a billion dollars on 7,096 receipts

$514,142,346 divided by 7,096 is about $72,450 per itemized line. A mean that large is a warning against reading 22219 as a typical Arlington household. Joint fundraising committees, PAC accounts, and other high-dollar filers that list a 22219 mail ZIP can dominate the arithmetic. FEC.gov stores the ZIP that was filed. It does not flag which lines are households.

Seven thousand ninety-six contributions is a thin count next to D.C. ZIPs that post similar dollars on 100,000-plus lines. 22219 belongs with other concentration ZIPs: high dollars, relatively few itemizations. Quote both $514,142,346 and 7,096. Dropping either number hides the filing shape.

This page does not assign a party or a motive to the total. Recipient committees are a different LobbyVault view. 22219 is a contributor-ZIP key on Schedule A.

Arlington mail codes and FEC addressing

ZIP 22219 is an Arlington, Virginia, postal code. FEC contributor ZIPs are not a census of Arlington residents. A committee headquartered in a Crystal City or Pentagon City building can post 22219 on itemizations that have nothing to do with a neighbor’s checkbook. $514,142,346 follows the form field.

The 7,096-line count is not a unique-donor count. This packet has no donor headcount. Repeat itemizations and reallocations can add lines without adding people.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 22219?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 22219 total $514,142,346 across 7,096 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 Arlington, Virginia. Joint fundraising committees and PAC addresses can appear in $514,142,346 when that five-digit code was filed. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 22219?

LobbyVault counts 7,096 itemized contributions for ZIP 22219. 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 7,096 should not be quoted as a population. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $514,142,346.

Does ZIP 22219 include only residents of Arlington, Virginia?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. PAC mail drops, joint fundraising committees, and office addresses in Arlington, Virginia can be part of $514,142,346 when 22219 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 7,096-line count follows the same rule. Open named receipts on the ZIP hub to see which committees appear.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 22219 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $514,142,346 and 7,096 lines for ZIP 22219. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from Arlington, Virginia are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $72,450 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
