Key figures

  • ZIP 78703 FEC itemizations total $37,431,677 on 89,415 receipts.
  • Mean itemized amount is about $419.
  • The total is federal FEC itemizations, not Texas state filings.

West Austin volume on 89,415 lines

Eighty-nine thousand four hundred fifteen itemized receipts add to $37,431,677. The mean is about $419 per line ($37,431,677 / 89,415). That pairing is a high-volume capital-city neighborhood pattern: many receipts, a few-hundred-dollar mean, eight-figure dollars. A mean in that band usually means many modest itemizations with a thinner tail of larger checks.

Sort the ZIP 78703 FEC page by amount to inspect the tail. The mean can look ordinary even if a few transfers are large, because 89,415 lines dilute them. Receipt count is not unique people. This packet has no donor-distinct figure. Treat 89,415 as lines on committee reports, not as a census of Tarrytown.

Austin is not a single ZIP. 78703 is one west-of-downtown code. Downtown, south Austin, and northwest suburbs have their own hubs. Rank them on the all-ZIP index. Adding 78703 to those codes is a recode FEC.gov did not publish on this table.

Federal money in a state capital neighborhood

Austin attracts searchers looking for a Texas-politics money story. This packet is federal only. State-office campaigns that file with the Texas Ethics Commission sit outside $37,431,677. Keep the federal ZIP total as a federal ZIP total. Mixing the two would invent a combined figure this packet does not contain.

Occupation and employer strings live on individual receipts. This ZIP rollup does not tally them. A tech-or-lobby shop story that cites $37,431,677 without opening those strings is using a ZIP total as a substitute for an employer table it does not have.
