Sugar Land volume on 59,584 federal lines
Fifty-nine thousand five hundred eighty-four itemized receipts add to $19,407,172. The mean is about $326 per line ($19,407,172 / 59,584). That pairing is a high-volume suburb pattern: many receipts, a low-to-mid hundreds mean, eight-figure dollars. Houston searchers often fold Fort Bend into one metro story. 77479 is Sugar Land, not the Galleria and not The Woodlands.
Sort the ZIP 77479 FEC page by amount. The $326 mean can look ordinary even if a few transfers are large, because 59,584 lines dilute them. Receipt count is not unique people. This packet has no donor-distinct figure. Treat 59,584 as lines on committee reports, not as a census of Sugar Land.
Sugar Land is not a single ZIP. 77479 is one city code. 77478 and other Fort Bend tags have their own hubs. Rank them on the all-ZIP index. Adding 77479 to a Houston ZIP is a recode FEC.gov did not publish on this table.
What 77479 is not
The aggregate is not a Texas Ethics Commission total and not a City of Sugar Land campaign report. It is federal itemizations from FEC.gov. It is also not a party index. FEC schedules do not score ZIP codes by ideology, and this packet does not invent one.
Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $19,407,172. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted even if they mention a Texas race. Occupation and employer strings live on individual receipts. This ZIP rollup does not tally them. An energy-or-suburb story that cites $19,407,172 without opening those strings is using a ZIP total as a substitute for an employer table it does not have.
