ZIP 33401 accounts for $104,649,331 in federal contributions across 43,305 FEC itemized receipts. LobbyVault adds amounts from FEC.gov filings that list 33401 as the contributor ZIP. West Palm Beach uses this code, but 43,305 lines for more than $104 million is a sparse receipt pattern, the kind that often includes committee mail. PAC and joint-fundraising addresses can share the ZIP.

Key figures

  • ZIP 33401 FEC itemizations total $104,649,331 on 43,305 receipts.
  • Mean itemized amount is about $2,417, a sparse-receipt pattern.
  • PAC and joint-fundraising addresses can share 33401 with personal itemizations.
  • Unique donor counts are not in this packet.

A nine-figure total on 43,305 receipts

Forty-three thousand three hundred five itemized lines sum to $104,649,331. That receipt count is far below ZIPs with similar dollars and two hundred thousand rows. The arithmetic mean is therefore large: about $2,417 per line ($104,649,331 / 43,305). Means that high deserve a look at the biggest receipts before anyone describes 33401 as a typical household ZIP.

West Palm Beach has residents, professional offices, and seasonal addresses. FEC itemizations capture whatever ZIP the treasurer entered. LobbyVault does not flag snowbirds versus year-round filers. The $104,649,331 total is the labeled sum, not a seasonal adjustment and not a condominium census.

Florida east-coast ZIPs appear often in national fundraising coverage because joint-fundraising committees use convenient addresses. Coverage that skips the receipt count will miss why 33401 looks different from a high-volume residential code. Forty-three thousand lines is the fact that should sit next to $104,649,331 in any comparison.

Why sparse receipts change the story

When dollars stay in nine figures and receipts drop into the tens of thousands, a handful of transfers can dominate. Joint-fundraising committees and PACs often use a convenient Florida ZIP. Sorting the ZIP 33401 FEC page by amount will show whether $104,649,331 is broad or concentrated. If the top rows are committee names, the ZIP is functioning as a mail drop as much as a neighborhood.

There is still no unique-donor count in this packet. Forty-three thousand lines could be many people or repeated committee activity. Keep 43,305 labeled as contribution rows. Converting them into West Palm Beach residents would be a statistic this packet does not support.
