Community Overview

Gipsy is a small rural community in Indiana County, Pennsylvania, with a population of just 57 residents across 20 households. This ZIP Code serves a 1.47-square-mile area that's designated as a PO Box Only Zone, meaning street delivery isn't available anywhere in the territory.

Postal Services

The Gipsy post office maintains 39 PO Boxes for the local community. With nearly twice as many boxes as households (an adoption rate of 1.95), the post office serves people beyond just the immediate residents, likely including rural neighbors and seasonal property owners. Of the 32 total housing units in the area, 12 are vacant and 4 are used seasonally.

Despite being classified as a PO Box ZIP, Gipsy does have some limited street delivery through a mix of one city route and one rural route. The street network includes Gorman Rd (8 addresses), Gipsy Rd (6 addresses), and Ball Park Rd (3 addresses), along with four smaller roads. This mixed delivery pattern is typical of small Pennsylvania communities where rural routes supplement PO Box service.

Community Characteristics

The community is entirely native-born (100%) with a median age of 48.5 years. Median household income stands at $87,083, well above state averages for rural areas. The housing stock is notably old, with 31 of the structures built before 1939, and 8 mobile homes in the area. Only 3.9% of adults hold bachelor's degrees.
