ZIP Code 83002

Ten thousand lines, a $1,964 mean

$20,509,603 divided by 10,442 is about $1,964 per itemized line. That is filing shape, not a typical Jackson Hole household. A shorter list with a four-figure mean usually means larger Schedule A rows lift the average more than they would on a 70,000-line ZIP.

Ten thousand four hundred forty-two is still a contribution-line count, not a unique-person count. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new people. It is not a handful of mega-checks either. This packet has no donor headcount and no size bands.

Do not read $1,964 as what a typical payer gave. Sort the ZIP 83002 FEC page by amount. A few large rows can account for a large share of $20,509,603 while smaller itemizations fill out 10,442.

A Teton County ZIP on FEC forms

83002 covers south Jackson and overlapping Teton County mail. A seasonal address, a year-round home, or a committee that files 83002 adds to $20,509,603 when that ZIP is on the itemization. Treating the total as household-only giving misstates the field.

Searchers who convert $20,509,603 into a ski-town giving rank recode the field. FEC.gov stores five digits as typed. The packet does not split residents from committees. The legal field is the string 83002 as filed.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 83002?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 83002 total $20,509,603 across 10,442 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 Jackson residents. The mean of about $1,964 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 83002?

LobbyVault counts 10,442 itemized contributions for ZIP 83002. That is a shorter line list for this dollar band. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $20,509,603.

Does ZIP 83002 include only Jackson residents?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Seasonal, office, and committee addresses in the 83002 grid can be part of $20,509,603 when that is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 10,442-line count follows the same rule.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 83002 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $20,509,603 and 10,442 lines for ZIP 83002. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Wyoming state filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.
