A university-town ZIP with 72,489 lines

$17,853,842 divided by 72,489 is about $246 per itemized line. That high-volume, low-mean shape matches other campus-adjacent codes in this wave more than it matches a 24,000-line island ZIP. The packet publishes those two numbers. It does not publish a unique-donor count or a UNC-faculty split.

Seventy-two thousand four hundred eighty-nine contributions is among the longer lists here. Volume is not a headcount. Small itemized gifts, repeat givers, and redesignations can add rows. Quote 72,489 as a contribution-line total.

LobbyVault does not attach a Research Triangle political identity to $17,853,842. The source is FEC.gov receipts tagged 27514.

Chapel Hill volume is the story the two numbers support: $17,853,842 across 72,489 contributions, about $246 per line. Small itemized gifts and repeat rows produce that shape. They do not produce a unique-donor census. Recheck the ZIP 27514 FEC page after quarterly filings. Carrboro-adjacent keys are separate roll-ups. Named receipts show committees. FEC.gov remains the original.

Chapel Hill mail is still one five-digit field

27514 covers Chapel Hill households, campus-adjacent addresses, and small offices. A committee that lists a 27514 suite still posts that ZIP. $17,853,842 follows the form. It is not a resident-only book and not a faculty payroll book.

Open named receipts on the ZIP 27514 FEC page if you need to see which committees appear. This guide will not guess the mix inside 72,489 lines.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 27514?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 27514 total $17,853,842 across 72,489 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 Chapel Hill residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $246 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
Why does ZIP 27514 have so many contribution lines?
LobbyVault counts 72,489 itemized contributions for ZIP 27514 against $17,853,842. University-town household mail and small itemized gifts can produce many rows at a low mean. Repeat gifts add lines without adding unique people. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 72,489 should not be quoted as a population.
Does ZIP 27514 include only Chapel Hill residents?
No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Campus-adjacent offices and committees that file 27514 can be part of $17,853,842 when that is what was entered. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. Open named receipts on the ZIP hub to see which committees appear.
Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 27514 totals?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $17,853,842 and 72,489 lines for ZIP 27514. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and North Carolina state filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.

ZIP is the 5-digit contributor ZIP on FEC itemizations. Totals can include joint fundraising and PAC addresses, not only residents.
