Burlington sits along Route 6 in Bradford County, Pennsylvania. With 147 residents living in 55 households, it's a small rural crossroads where the post office provides the only mail delivery option. This is officially a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative to picking up mail at the post office.
Despite the PO Box classification, rural carrier routes do serve the area. Two rural routes handle 43 delivery points along roads like Berwick Turnpike and Burlington Turnpike. The post office maintains 41 PO Boxes for the community's 55 households, a 75% adoption rate that makes sense when there's no other choice.
Burlington is a working-class community with deep roots. Median household income is $42,188, and homes are valued around $217,900. Almost everyone owns their home here (85%), and 100% of residents were born in the United States. The median age of 37.5 suggests a mix of families and working adults rather than retirees.
What stands out is the workforce. A large share of workers are in transportation, warehousing, and utilities. Another 23% work from home. This combination of truckers and remote workers may seem unusual, but it fits a community located on a major highway corridor where some residents drive commercial routes while others have found ways to work without commuting at all.
Street names reflect the highway corridor setting. Route 6 is the main artery, with turnpikes connecting to nearby communities.
ZIP Code 18814 has 147 residents and 55 households (average 2.67 persons per household). The median age is 37.5 years, younger than the state (41.0) and slightly younger than the nation (38.8). The gender split is 47.6% male and 52.4% female, which is slightly lower than the national male share (49.1%), making this a female-majority area. Largest groups are White (95.2%, much higher than the state average of 75.0% and well above the national average of 61.6%) and Hispanic or Latino (1.4%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 1.4%, which is much lower than the national average (18.7%).
