Community Overview

North Apollo is a small borough in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, with 1,246 residents living in 542 households. This compact 0.59 square mile community sits along the Kiskiminetas River about 30 miles northeast of Pittsburgh. The town's numbered street grid (13th through 21st streets) and avenues like Acheson, Moore, and River Road form the backbone of this established Pennsylvania community.

Why PO Boxes Are Required

This is a PO Box Only Zone. There's no alternative mail delivery for the entire borough. The North Apollo post office maintains 571 PO Boxes, with an adoption rate of 1.05 boxes per household. That means nearly every household has a box, plus the post office serves some surrounding areas beyond the borough boundaries.

Local Character

Most residents own their homes. Of the 542 occupied housing units, 430 (79%) are owner-occupied. The median home value is $130,800, typical for small Pennsylvania towns. Median household income is $64,046, and the community skews older with a median age of 46.7 years. Only 11 residents live in group quarters, so this is a traditional residential community, not an institutional setting.

Delivery Infrastructure

Despite the PO Box classification, the ZIP does have some street delivery infrastructure. There's one city carrier route and one rural route serving 95 street delivery records across 38 different streets. However, the primary mail access remains through PO Boxes at the post office.
