  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

A round $47.32 million on 56,290 lines

$47,320,000 divided by 56,290 is about $841 per itemized line. That mean sits in a mid-dollar band. It is not a median. FEC.gov did not publish a typical-gift figure for 77027. LobbyVault reports the two packet facts: the dollar sum and the contribution count. The even dollar total is what the aggregate stored; it is not a rounded estimate invented for this page.

Fifty-six thousand two hundred ninety itemizations is a mid-size list. Codes that post similar dollars on a few hundred lines are a different filing shape. Both shapes are legal FEC filings. Neither is a score of neighborhood virtue. The table answers how much itemized federal money was tagged 77027.

The even $47,320,000 figure is the aggregate as stored, not a rounded estimate invented for prose. Cite it with 56,290 so a reader can see filing shape. A mean of about $841 follows from division. It is not a median.

What the 77027 ZIP field stores

Schedule A stores a five-digit contributor ZIP. A committee, a joint fundraising committee, or an individual who lists 77027 will add to $47,320,000 when that is the ZIP on the receipt. FEC.gov does not mark which rows are homes. This aggregate therefore cannot be cited as resident-only giving in 77027.

The 56,290 figure counts itemized lines. Repeat contributors add lines. Redesignations and memo entries can add lines. This packet has no unique-donor count, so this guide does not invent a headcount of people behind 77027.

Researchers comparing 77027 to other Houston-area codes should keep both packet facts in the same sentence. $47,320,000 without 56,290 hides whether the total is a long list or a short list. 56,290 without $47,320,000 hides scale. FEC.gov published both. LobbyVault indexed both.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 77027?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 77027 total $47,320,000 across 56,290 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 $841 follows from dividing those two packet facts.
How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 77027?
LobbyVault counts 56,290 itemized contributions for ZIP 77027. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $47,320,000.
Does ZIP 77027 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 $47,320,000 when 77027 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 56,290-line count follows the same rule.
Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 77027 totals?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $47,320,000 and 56,290 lines for ZIP 77027. 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.
