Key figures

  • ZIP 37205 FEC itemizations total $50,310,816 across 77,560 contributions.
  • The mean line is about $649; the packet has no median or unique-donor count.
  • Joint fundraising and PAC addresses can sit in the ZIP total.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Seventy-seven thousand lines under $50.3 million

$50,310,816 divided by 77,560 is about $649. The mean is a ratio for researchers, not a typical gift. FEC.gov did not publish a median for 37205. A few large committee receipts can sit inside $50,310,816 without describing how most rows look. LobbyVault reports the dollar sum and the contribution count.

Seventy-seven thousand five hundred sixty itemizations is a long enough list that sorting by dollars and sorting by count will not put 37205 in the same rank band as a 500-line ZIP with similar dollars. That contrast is filing shape. It is not a ranking of civic virtue. No party split is published on this ZIP total.

37205 and other $50 million ZIPs can look alike on a dollar ranking and unlike on a line-count ranking. 77,560 against $50,310,816 is the pairing that belongs in a citation. Dropping either number hides filing shape. FEC.gov published both.

What FEC stored under 37205

The contributor ZIP on Schedule A is a five-digit string. A PAC, a joint fundraising committee, or an individual listing 37205 adds to $50,310,816 when that is the filed ZIP. The Commission does not flag which rows are residences. Recoding the total as household giving would be a new dataset.

77,560 is an itemization count. Repeat filers, redesignations, and memo entries add rows. This packet has no unique-donor field. This guide does not invent one.

Researchers comparing 37205 to nearby codes should keep both packet facts in the same sentence. $50,310,816 without 77,560 hides whether the total is a long list or a short list. 77,560 without $50,310,816 hides scale. FEC.gov published both. LobbyVault indexed both.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 37205?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 37205 total $50,310,816 across 77,560 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $649 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 37205?
LobbyVault counts 77,560 itemized contributions for ZIP 37205. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $50,310,816.
Does ZIP 37205 include only residents?
No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. PAC mail drops, joint fundraising committees, and office addresses can be part of $50,310,816 when 37205 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 77,560-line count follows the same rule.
Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 37205 totals?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $50,310,816 and 77,560 lines for ZIP 37205. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal 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.
