A Seasonal Community

Crown sits in rural Clarion County, Pennsylvania, where seasonal vacationers far outnumber year-round residents. Of the 107 housing units in this 0.04 square mile area, 90 are vacant seasonally. That's 84% of all homes. Only 17 households live here year-round, supporting a population of just 45 people with a median age of 58.5 years.

Why Everyone Needs a PO Box

The Crown post office maintains 32 PO Boxes for those 17 permanent households, creating an adoption rate of 1.88 to 1. This is a PO Box Only Zone. There's no alternative mail delivery across the community. Both seasonal property owners and year-round residents rely exclusively on PO Boxes, though limited rural carrier service does reach some addresses along Route 66 and Roundtown Road.

The Crown Character

Street names tell the story of this place. Trout Lane, Catfish Lane, and Sportsman Lane suggest a recreational retreat focused on fishing and outdoor activities. Route 66 has the most delivery points (8 records), followed by Roundtown Road (4 records). Nature-themed lanes like Birch Lane dot the landscape. With no commercial establishments recorded in the ZIP code, Crown functions purely as a getaway destination.

Demographics and Housing

The housing stock skews old and modest. Census data shows 93 units were built before 1939, and 17 are mobile homes. Per capita income stands at $23,932, with all residents born in the United States. The combination of seasonal vacancy, older structures, and fishing-themed street names points to a long-standing tradition of summer cabins and weekend retreats in this corner of northwestern Pennsylvania.
