The post office defines the town's rhythm. Most local addresses cluster around a handful of streets: Windy Hill Road has the most delivery points (six ZIP+4 records), followed by Toat Street with two. Numbered streets like 1st, 2nd, and 3rd suggest an older grid pattern, though the entire street network spans just 14 distinct roads. With two city carrier routes and one rural route serving the area, residents outside the core likely receive delivery through neighboring ZIP codes while maintaining Windsor Heights boxes for local identity.
Housing values tell the story of an affordable, working-class enclave. The median home value sits at $63,100, well below state and national averages, while median household income reaches $60,938. About 26.7% of employed residents work from home—perhaps taking advantage of the quiet setting while connecting to nearby employment centers. The median age of 45.4 years indicates a settled population, neither particularly young nor aging rapidly.
The street network mixes traditional numbered streets (1st, 2nd, 3rd) with distinctive local names like Windy Hill and Toat. The numbered grid suggests early town planning, while Windy Hill Road's dominance (six delivery records) marks it as the primary residential corridor. With only 14 distinct streets in 0.14 square miles, the layout is extremely compact.
ZIP Code 26075 has 495 residents and 224 households (average 2.17 persons per household). The median age is 45.4 years, slightly older than the state (42.9) and older than the nation (38.8). The gender split is 51.9% male and 48.1% female, which is slightly higher than the national male share (49.1%), making this a male-majority area. Largest groups are White (95.8%, much higher than the national average of 61.6%) and Black or African American (1.2%, much lower than the national average of 12.4%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 0.8%, which is much lower than the national average (18.7%).
