Midway is a small community in Washington County, Pennsylvania, with a population of 925 spread across just 0.84 square miles. This is a PO Box Only Zone. No alternative mail delivery exists within the area. The Midway post office maintains 430 PO Boxes for 379 households, giving an adoption rate of 113%. This slight oversubscription happens when businesses and residents from surrounding areas also use the Midway post office.
Despite the PO Box classification, the USPS does provide some carrier delivery through a mix of one city route and one rural route. This Urban+Rural delivery pattern serves 38 different streets, ranging from North Ave (11 delivery points) to single-home streets. The street grid includes numbered streets (1st, 2nd, 3rd), traditional small-town names (Railroad St, Depot St, Church St), and residential streets named for trees and historical figures (Cherry St, Pine St, Jefferson St, Washington Ave).
The community leans older and settled. Median age is 43.4 years, and 80% of residents own their homes rather than rent. Median home values sit at $124,100, with median household income at $53,333. About a quarter of workers (25%) work from home, which is higher than typical for Pennsylvania small towns. Another 349 workers are employed in transportation, warehousing, or utilities, likely reflecting the area's role in the broader Pittsburgh metro region.
Educational attainment runs lower than state and national averages. Only 10% of adults 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, compared to around 35% nationally. The community is 95% white, with a small Hispanic population of 13%. Racial diversity is minimal. Housing stock is quite old, with 543 of the units built before 1939. That's more than the total number of current housing units (432), indicating some loss of older structures over time.
All mail to Midway must use the 15060 ZIP code. Because this is a PO Box Only Zone, using a PO Box address is required for reliable mail delivery.
Street names show classic small Pennsylvania town character with numbered streets (1st, 2nd, 3rd), railroad heritage (Railroad St, Depot St), and traditional civic names (Washington, Jefferson, Church).
ZIP Code 15060 has 925 residents and 379 households (average 2.44 persons per household). The median age is 43.4 years, slightly older than the state (41.0) and older than the nation (38.8). The gender split is 50.7% male and 49.3% female, which is slightly higher than the state male share (48.9%), making this a male-majority area. Largest groups are White (94.6%, much higher than the state average of 75.0% and well above the national average of 61.6%) and Hispanic or Latino (1.6%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 1.6%, which is much lower than the national average (18.7%).
