Key figures

  • ZIP 30309 FEC itemizations total $36,504,618 on 93,801 receipts.
  • Mean itemized amount is about $389.
  • 30309 is a Midtown Atlanta mailing code, not a citywide combined total.
  • Unique donor counts are not in this packet.

Midtown volume on 93,801 federal lines

Ninety-three thousand eight hundred one itemized receipts add to $36,504,618. The mean is about $389 per line ($36,504,618 / 93,801). That pairing is a high-volume in-town pattern: many receipts, a few-hundred-dollar mean, eight-figure dollars. A mean in that band usually means many modest itemizations with a thinner tail of larger checks.

Sort the ZIP 30309 FEC page by amount to inspect the tail. The mean can look ordinary even if a few transfers are large, because 93,801 lines dilute them. Receipt count is not unique people. This packet has no donor-distinct figure. Treat 93,801 as lines on committee reports, not as a census of Midtown.

Atlanta is not a single ZIP. 30309 is one Midtown code. Buckhead, Downtown, and Sandy Springs codes have their own hubs. Rank them on the all-ZIP index. Adding 30309 to those codes is a recode FEC.gov did not publish on this table.

What 30309 is not

The aggregate is not a Georgia state-ethics total and not a city of Atlanta campaign report. It is federal itemizations from FEC.gov. It is also not a party index. FEC schedules do not score ZIP codes by ideology, and this packet does not invent one.

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $36,504,618. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted even if they mention a Georgia race. Occupation and employer strings live on individual receipts. This ZIP rollup does not tally them. A corporate-HQ story that cites $36,504,618 without opening those strings is using a ZIP total as a substitute for an employer table it does not have.

Questions

How much did ZIP 30309 itemize in federal contributions?

What is the average 30309 contribution?
Dividing $36,504,618 by 93,801 receipts yields about $389 per line. That is a mean, not a median, and not a per-person average. This packet does not include a unique-donor count, so the receipt total should not be read as a headcount of Midtown Atlanta residents.
Does 30309 cover all of Atlanta?
No. 30309 is one five-digit code used in Midtown. Other Atlanta ZIPs have separate FEC hubs with their own dollar totals. Compare them on the all-ZIP index. The $36,504,618 figure is only the itemizations labeled 30309.
