Obernburg is a tiny hamlet tucked into the Catskill foothills of Sullivan County, New York. Just 61 people call it home year-round. Half the housing sits empty most of the year: of 50 total units, 25 are occupied and 21 are designated for seasonal or occasional use. This 42% seasonal vacancy rate marks Obernburg as a weekend and summer retreat for New Yorkers escaping the city.
The Obernburg post office operates 52 PO Boxes for a community with only 25 households. That's a 2.08x adoption rate, meaning twice as many boxes exist as there are local homes. Why? This is a PO Box Only Zone. There's no alternative mail delivery. Seasonal homeowners keep boxes year-round to receive mail, packages, and property notices. Neighbors from surrounding areas also rely on this small post office.
Rural carrier routes serve addresses along Obernburg Road, County Road 95, W Killie Road, and Weiss Road. General Delivery is available too. But street addresses in Obernburg still fall under ZIP 12736. The Obernburg post office exists as a point within that larger territory, serving as a PO Box pickup location rather than a delivery origin.
Median age here is 51.9 years, older than typical. Median home values reach $408,300, reflecting the premium for Catskill properties within weekend range of New York City. A third of workers (33.2%) work from home, far above national averages. This isn't commuter country. It's remote-work country, where professionals can split time between city and country.
