The ZIP serves as a hub for surrounding rural areas. With only 111 residents within its boundaries, the post office draws customers from communities that lack carrier delivery. Two rural routes (Route C and Route R) extend outward, covering terrain where street delivery isn't viable. The post office becomes the collection point for mail that can't reach remote addresses.
The ZIP's geography reflects its service model. At just 0.028 square miles of land area, it's essentially a point location rather than a sprawling zone. This tiny footprint contains four streets: Pen Mar Road Extension, Broad Street, Gates Lane, and Pen Mar Road itself. The Extension handles most delivery points with four ZIP+4 records.
Demographics show a small, aging population. The median age is 33.5 years, with 93 residents identifying as white, one as Black, and two as Asian. Fourteen residents identify as two or more races. All 59 occupied housing units are owner-occupied according to census data, though 27 are classified as "other" housing types beyond standard single-family structures. Four units stand vacant.
The rural route structure explains the PO Box concentration. Without city carrier routes and only limited rural coverage, many addresses in the broader service area don't receive street delivery. Residents make the trip to Rouzerville to collect mail, creating demand that far exceeds the local population. That's standard for Pennsylvania's rural border communities, where post offices serve as mail hubs for areas measured in dozens of square miles.
Pen Mar references the nearby Pennsylvania-Maryland state line, a historic area known for the Pen Mar amusement park that operated from 1877 to 1943. The street names reflect the community's position as a border settlement, with simple designations that serve a small residential cluster rather than an extensive urban grid.
ZIP Code 17250 has 111 residents and 59 households (average 1.88 persons per household). The median age is 33.5 years, significantly younger than the state (41.0) and younger than the nation (38.8). The gender split is 49.5% male and 50.5% female, which is about the same as the state male share (48.9%). Largest groups are White (83.8%, much higher than the state average of 75.0% and well above the national average of 61.6%) and Hispanic or Latino (2.7%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 2.7%, which is much lower than the national average (18.7%).
