Nottoway is a tiny rural community at the heart of Nottoway County, Virginia. Only 21 people live here in 3 occupied homes. Yet the post office maintains 31 PO Boxes, more than ten times the number of local households. The reason: this is a PO Box Only Zone that serves the surrounding countryside.
This ZIP covers only a point location on West Courthouse Road, the county's historic center. The enclosing ZIP 23824 handles the broader area, but for residents who prefer Nottoway as their mailing address, PO Boxes here are the only option. There's no street delivery alternative.
The community itself is remarkably small. Eight housing units exist within the Census boundary, but only 3 are occupied. The median age of 40.5 suggests a mix of working-age adults rather than retirees. All 21 residents were born in the United States, and 55.6% of adults hold bachelor's degrees or higher, an unusually high rate for such a small rural community.
The street data tells the whole story in a single name: West Courthouse Road. This is Virginia courthouse country, where the county seat has served as the postal hub for generations. The post office here isn't just a mail facility. It's a connection point for rural residents across Nottoway County who use the Nottoway name for their correspondence.
The single street name reflects Nottoway's identity as the county courthouse location.
