Malibu volume on 73,188 federal lines

Seventy-three thousand one hundred eighty-eight itemized receipts add to $37,898,848. The mean is about $518 per line ($37,898,848 / 73,188). Celebrity geography attracts searchers looking for a Hollywood-money story. This packet cannot tell that story because it has no employer rollup and no name list in the aggregate. $37,898,848 and 73,188 receipts are the facts. Names live on the hub table.

A mean near $518 on a 73,188-line base is a volume pattern, not a handful-of-checks pattern. Sort the ZIP 90265 FEC page by amount to inspect the tail. The mean can look ordinary even if a few transfers are large, because tens of thousands of lines dilute them.

Los Angeles County is not a single ZIP. 90265 is one Malibu code. Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades, and Westside codes have their own hubs. Rank them on the all-ZIP index. Adding 90265 to those codes is a recode this packet does not contain.

Receipts are not unique people

This packet has no donor-distinct figure. Treat 73,188 as lines on committee reports. Repeat itemizers across cycles add rows without adding new residents. Payroll-style deductions reported on separate dates do the same. Cite 73,188 as an itemization count, not a census of Malibu.

Occupation and employer strings live on individual receipts. This ZIP rollup does not tally them. An entertainment-industry story that cites $37,898,848 without opening those strings is using a ZIP total as a substitute for an employer table it does not have.

Dividing $37,898,848 by 73,188 receipts yields about $518 per line. That is a mean, not a median, and not a per-person average. This packet does not include a unique-donor count, so the receipt total should not be read as a headcount of Malibu residents.
