Bridgehampton sits in the heart of Long Island's South Fork, part of the legendary Hamptons resort corridor. This isn't a town built around vacation homes. It's a year-round community of 2,129 residents that transforms each summer when seasonal homeowners arrive. With 46% of the 1,953 housing units vacant and held for seasonal use, Bridgehampton doubles or triples in population during peak months.
The Bridgehampton post office maintains 1,245 PO Boxes for 849 occupied homes. That's a 1.47 adoption rate, meaning there are nearly 50% more boxes than year-round households. This pattern is typical of resort communities where seasonal homeowners maintain boxes year-round, even when they're not in residence. The area is designated a PO Box Only Zone, which means there's no alternative mail delivery option. Even with Rural Route 1 and two City carrier routes providing some street delivery, most residents and seasonal property owners rely on PO Boxes.
Median home values tell the story of exclusivity: $1,951,100. That figure places Bridgehampton among the most expensive ZIP codes in America. The community skews older, with a median age of 47.7 years, and 85% of occupied homes are owner-occupied rather than rentals. Education levels run high, with 64% holding bachelor's degrees or higher. Per capita income reaches $169,195, and median household income is $200,353.
Street names capture both the agricultural heritage and coastal geography. Montauk Highway carries the most delivery points (116 records), connecting the Hamptons corridor. Ocean Road leads to the Atlantic beaches. Historic lanes like Scuttlehole Road, Lumber Lane, and Butter Lane preserve names from Bridgehampton's 17th-century farming past. Mecox Road references the nearby bay and wetlands. The mix of rural roads and beach-access streets reflects the area's dual character as both working landscape and coastal retreat.
Street names blend 17th-century agricultural heritage (Scuttlehole, Butter Lane) with coastal geography (Ocean Road, Mecox Road).
