Callicoon Center sits in the western Catskills of Sullivan County, New York. It's a small hamlet where 38% of housing units sit empty most of the year, used only seasonally. Of 128 homes, just 69 are occupied year-round. The other 59 are vacation properties, summer retreats, and weekend getaways for city residents.
The post office maintains 150 PO Boxes for a community of 69 households. That's more than two boxes per home. This 2.17 adoption rate exists because Callicoon Center is a PO Box Only Zone with no street delivery alternative. Everyone here picks up mail at the post office, and seasonal property owners keep their boxes year-round. Surrounding rural properties without their own ZIP also rely on this office.
Street names tell the story of a rural vacation community. Hills Resort Rd points to the area's resort heritage from the Catskills' heyday as a vacation destination. Gulf Rd handles the most delivery points. Other roads like Bethlehem Rd, Hahn Rd, and Weissman Rd carry family names typical of small Catskills settlements.
The housing stock is old. Of the 128 units, 87 were built before 1939, making this a 68% historic community. Median home value stands at $293,400. The population skews middle-aged with a median of 42.5 years, typical for an area mixing retirees, weekenders, and a handful of working families. Per capita income runs high at $81,153, reflecting the second-home wealth. Owner-occupancy dominates at 81%, with just 13 renter households.
Street names mix family surnames (Hahn, Weissman, Leins) with references to the Catskills resort era (Hills Resort Rd).
ZIP Code 12724 has 215 residents and 69 households (average 3.12 persons per household). The median age is 42.5 years, older than the state (39.0) and older than the nation (38.8). The gender split is 63.7% male and 36.3% female, which is much higher than the state male share (48.4%), making this a male-majority area. Largest groups are White (94.0%, much higher than the state average of 55.2% and well above the national average of 61.6%) and Hispanic or Latino (1.9%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 1.9%, which is much lower than the state average (19.5%).
