Fishs Eddy sits in Delaware County along the East Branch Delaware River in New York's western Catskills. This is a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative mail delivery across the 6.2 square mile territory. The 191 residents rely on the post office as their sole mail access point.
The post office maintains 112 PO Boxes for 88 local households. That's a 1.27 adoption rate, meaning boxes serve people beyond the immediate village. Residents from surrounding roads along County Highway 28 and Bodoit Road travel to Fishs Eddy for mail service. Rural carrier routes reach homes scattered across county highways and hillside roads, while PO Boxes handle the rest.
This is an older, seasonal community. Median age is 51.6 years. Of the 146 housing units, 53 are vacant and used seasonally (36% seasonal vacancy). That means the population shifts with the seasons as second homeowners arrive in warmer months. Most year-round residents own their homes (64 of 88 occupied units).
Median household income is $68,083. Educational attainment is low for the region: just 6.7% of adults hold a bachelor's degree. The workforce is small, with significant employment in transportation and warehousing. This isn't a year-round employment center. It's a quiet riverside hamlet where retirees and seasonal residents outnumber working families.
