Key figures

  • ZIP 35213 FEC itemizations total $15,369,843 across 31,804 contributions.
  • The mean line is about $483; the packet has no median or unique-donor count.
  • 35213 is a five-digit FEC contributor ZIP, not a resident-only census.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

The $15,369,843 Mountain Brook roll-up

FEC.gov itemizations tagged 35213 add to $15,369,843. The matching line count is 31,804. Dividing dollars by lines yields about $483 per itemization. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. It is not a median, not a typical Mountain Brook household gift, and not evidence that one committee dominates the ZIP. Over-the-mountain ZIPs often mix household itemizations with professional-office mail.

Thirty-one thousand eight hundred four rows sits in the middle of the $16 million ZIP band: neither the thinnest file nor the longest. A list of 31,804 rows can still mix large transfers with small itemized gifts. Volume does not prove small-dollar giving, and a mean near $483 does not prove a single payer. This aggregate does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share the same five digits.

No party share is attached to $15,369,843. Keep 35213 as a geographic key on the contributor record. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a over-the-mountain Birmingham political score. Readers who want named payees should open the live hub rather than infer a story from the mean.

Over-the-mountain addresses on federal receipts

35213 covers the Mountain Brook ZIP over the mountain from downtown Birmingham. A contributor who lists a Mountain Brook address, or a committee that files 35213, adds to $15,369,843 when that ZIP is on the itemization. The accurate description is tagged federal receipts, not β€œwhat Mountain Brook residents gave.”

The packet has no unique-donor count. Treat 31,804 as a line count. Repeat gifts add rows. Memo entries add rows. This guide does not convert lines into people. Alabama state filings never enter the federal ZIP total.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 35213?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 35213 total $15,369,843 across 31,804 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Mountain Brook residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 35213?
LobbyVault counts 31,804 itemized contributions for ZIP 35213. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $15,369,843.
Does ZIP 35213 include only Mountain Brook residents?
No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in Mountain Brook can be part of $15,369,843 when 35213 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 31,804-line count follows the same rule.
Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 35213 totals?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $15,369,843 and 31,804 lines for ZIP 35213. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Alabama Secretary of State elections filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees, 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.
