Bretton Woods sits in the heart of New Hampshire's White Mountains, home to the historic Mount Washington Hotel and Resort. This isn't a traditional town. It's a resort community where 107 year-round residents live among 380 housing units, 86% of which sit vacant most of the year. The 2020 Census recorded 319 seasonal units, creating dramatic population swings between winter ski season and summer tourism.
Mail delivery happens exclusively via highway contract route. The single street, Mount Washington Hotel Road, serves resort properties with units rather than traditional house numbers. With 1,046 jobs at just 6 business establishments, the area functions as a major employment center that far exceeds its tiny residential population. Most workers commute from surrounding towns.
The year-round population of 107 people maintains a median age of 48.5 years. These are primarily resort employees and property managers who live on-site. The absence of PO Boxes (zero maintained by the post office) and reliance on highway contract delivery reflects the resort's centralized mail handling system, where employee housing and seasonal condominiums receive mail through the hotel's internal distribution.
Bretton Woods was classified as a PO Box ZIP before the resort expanded its delivery infrastructure. Today, all mail arrives via highway contract carrier to Mount Washington Hotel Road addresses. The community serves vacationers, seasonal homeowners, and resort staff rather than permanent residents.
Single street serving resort properties with unit designations rather than traditional residential addressing.
