The ZIP covers less than half a square mile in Fayette County, with delivery concentrated along Midland Trail. This isn't a limitation of infrastructure—it's a reflection of Appalachian settlement patterns where small communities serve as postal hubs for dispersed rural populations. The post office maintains boxes for four local businesses alongside residential customers, functioning as a regional service point for the surrounding area.
Midland Trail is the sole street with delivery records, a historic route that connected Charleston to the coalfields of southern West Virginia. The trail's name reflects its 19th-century origins as a trading path through the Appalachian mountains.
