ZIP 67201 accounts for $27,743,437 in federal contributions across 4,142 FEC itemized receipts. LobbyVault sums FEC.gov filings that list 67201 as the contributor ZIP. Downtown Wichita mail uses those five digits, and the receipt list is thin relative to the dollars. Totals can include joint fundraising and PAC addresses, not only residents.
Key figures
- ZIP 67201 FEC itemizations total $27,743,437 across 4,142 contributions.
- The mean line is about $6,698; the packet has no median or unique-donor count.
- 67201 is a five-digit FEC contributor ZIP, not a resident roster.
- Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.
Four thousand lines against $27,743,437
Four thousand one hundred forty-two itemized receipts add to $27,743,437. The mean is about $6,698 per line ($27,743,437 / 4,142). That is a high mean for a downtown ZIP. It is the arithmetic you get when large committee transfers share a Wichita core code with a shorter personal-itemization list. Comparing 67201 with a high-volume residential code without noting the 4,142-line gap will mislead a reader.
ZIP 67201 is used on downtown Wichita mail, including office towers and committee letterhead. LobbyVault does not relabel those rows as non-residential; the ZIP field is whatever the filer reported. The $27,743,437 total therefore follows the form, not a residential occupancy file.
A shorter downtown list is still a public record. It is useful for seeing where committees file. It is a poor proxy for how downtown Wichita votes. Keep those questions out of a ZIP rollup that only contains dollars and a receipt count.
Why a 4,142-line ZIP distorts neighborhood stories
If you treat $27,743,437 as what people in 67201 gave, you invent a neighborhood that the form field does not describe. Four thousand one hundred forty-two rows is short enough that the largest lines are easy to inspect. Sort the ZIP 67201 FEC page by amount. A handful of payers can account for a large share of the total. That is a reading of the table, not a motive claim.
A mean near $6,698 is a prompt to read the payer column, not a typical household check. LobbyVault’s ZIP total follows the ZIP on each itemization it includes. It does not reconstruct the full path of every dollar.

Questions
- What is the ZIP 67201 contribution total?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 67201 total $27,743,437 across 4,142 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 downtown Wichita residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $6,698 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
- How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 67201?
- LobbyVault counts 4,142 itemized contributions for ZIP 67201. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. Those rows are itemized Schedule A lines, not people. The matching dollar total is $27,743,437.
- Does ZIP 67201 include only downtown Wichita residents?
- No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in the 67201 grid can be part of $27,743,437 when that is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 4,142-line count follows the same rule.
- Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 67201 totals?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $27,743,437 and 4,142 lines for ZIP 67201. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Kansas state filings are outside both figures. LobbyVault is the index, not the filing system. 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.
