Key figures
- ZIP 85253 FEC itemizations total $72,313,771 across 88,518 contributions.

A volume ZIP near $72 million
$72,313,771 divided by 88,518 is about $817 per itemized line. That mean sits below several high-dollar ZIPs that post comparable totals on far fewer rows. It is still a ratio of two FEC counts, not a median gift and not a typical household amount. The packet has no unique-donor field.
Eighty-eight thousand five hundred eighteen lines is the signature. Repeat itemizations, bundled events, and office-address giving can all lengthen the list. Treating 88,518 as a headcount of Paradise Valley residents misreads a contribution-line total.
No party share is attached to $72,313,771. Employer strings and recipient committees live on other LobbyVault views. 85253 is a geographic key on the contributor record.
How the five-digit field gets filled
A contributor who lists an 85253 address, a committee that files that ZIP, or a joint-fundraising schedule that uses the same five digits will all add to $72,313,771 when 85253 is on Schedule A. The table is tagged receipts, not a residential-only book for Maricopa County.
The 88,518-line count includes whatever the filer itemized with that ZIP. Memo entries can add rows. This guide does not invent a person count the packet omitted.

Questions
- How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 85253?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 85253 total $72,313,771 across 88,518 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 Paradise Valley residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $817 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
- How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 85253?
- LobbyVault counts 88,518 itemized contributions for ZIP 85253. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 88,518 should not be quoted as a population. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $72,313,771.
- Is the 85253 total only household giving in Paradise Valley?
- No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in the 85253 grid can be part of $72,313,771 when that is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 88,518-line count follows the same rule.
- Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 85253 totals?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $72,313,771 and 88,518 lines for ZIP 85253. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Non-federal Arizona 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.
