Arcadia is a small rural community in Indiana County, Pennsylvania with 77 residents and 33 households. This is officially designated as a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative mail delivery infrastructure across the 2.8 square mile territory. Despite this designation, the post office maintains both 10 PO Boxes and limited street delivery using one city carrier route and one rural carrier route.
The community's character shows in its housing stock. Of the 34 total housing units, 30 are mobile homes (88%). That's among the highest mobile home concentrations for any ZIP code in Pennsylvania. The median age is 34.8 years, and the entire population is White, with 100% born in the United States.
Street delivery follows Route 286 Highway East (9 addresses), Arcadia Road (7 addresses), and a handful of other local roads like Kerr Avenue and Number 11 Road. The post office itself is the only named building in the ZIP+4 database. With just 11 total residential delivery points according to USPS spatial data, this isn't a growing suburb. It's a working-class area where per capita income sits at $16,150.
Mail addressed to Arcadia, PA 15712 should include a PO Box number when possible. While some addresses receive street delivery, the PO Box Only Zone designation means not all locations have that option. The post office has served this area since before October 2004, when USPS tracking of ZIP introduction dates began.
Street names follow a simple rural pattern with a state highway, the community's namesake road, and a few local streets.
ZIP Code 15712 has 77 residents and 33 households (average 2.33 persons per household). The median age is 34.8 years, younger than the state (41.0) and younger than the nation (38.8). The gender split is 62.3% male and 37.7% female, which is much higher than the state male share (48.9%), making this a male-majority area. Largest groups are White (100.0%, much higher than the state average of 75.0% and well above the national average of 61.6%) and Black or African American (0.0%, much lower than the state average of 10.9% and well below the national average of 12.4%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 0.0%, which is much lower than the national average (18.7%).
