The post office sits near the Louisiana border, about 15 miles from Shreveport's airport area. In border regions like this, rural carrier routes often cross invisible county and sometimes state lines. Three rural routes and one general delivery route serve the area, connecting scattered households that wouldn't otherwise have regular mail service. FM 31 and Shreveport Street anchor the limited street infrastructure, but most mail here goes to boxes, not doors.
This is a predominantly white community (69% according to 2020 Census data), with a median age of 38.2 years and a population that has remained stable at 194 people. Housing occupancy is high at 68%, with virtually no seasonal vacancies. The 47 occupied homes break down to an average household size just over four people, suggesting multigenerational families rather than single residents.
The ZIP serves as what postal planners call a consolidation point. Twenty-seven businesses maintain addresses here, alongside the 117 residential PO Boxes. Eight different ZIP+4 records exist for just two street names and one named building (the post office itself). That's an unusually high ZIP+4-to-street ratio, indicating precise routing needs for rural delivery. When your nearest neighbors might be miles away and street delivery isn't economical, a centralized PO Box becomes the practical choice. The adoption rate isn't about preference. It's about geography.
The street names reveal the ZIP's character as a border crossing point: FM 31 is a farm-to-market road connecting rural Texas communities, while Shreveport Street points directly toward Louisiana's second-largest city just miles away. With only two streets recorded in the postal system, this isn't a traditional town grid but rather a crossroads serving dispersed rural populations on both sides of the state line.
ZIP Code 75642 has 194 residents and 47 households (average 4.13 persons per household). The median age is 38.2 years, slightly older than the state (35.6) and about the same as the nation (38.8). The gender split is 27.3% male and 72.7% female, which is much lower than the state male share (49.4%), making this a female-majority area. Largest groups are White (68.6%, much higher than the state average of 50.1%) and Hispanic or Latino (11.9%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 11.9%, which is much lower than the state average (39.3%).
