Key Facts
  • This is a PO Box ZIP code serving Berry College, with 97% of residents living in campus housing (1,601 out of 1,655 people)
  • The population-to-household ratio of 236:1 reflects dormitory living rather than traditional family housing
  • Only 1 street receives carrier delivery (Martha Berry Highway NW), while 41 PO Box ZIP+4 codes serve campus departments
  • The median age of 20.4 years is among the youngest in Georgia, characteristic of undergraduate student populations
  • Educational services employ 879 people, representing the vast majority of the local workforce
  • With only 7 occupied housing units for 1,655 residents, conventional street delivery infrastructure doesn't exist here

Building-Based Mail Delivery

The post office doesn't serve traditional neighborhoods. Instead, mail delivery follows a building-based system designed for campus operations. The single street route along Martha Berry Highway NW handles general campus mail, while 41 separate PO Box ZIP+4 records suggest individual departments, offices, or administrative units maintain dedicated boxes. With only 7 occupied housing units serving 1,655 people, the ratio of 236 residents per household makes conventional residential delivery impossible.

Campus Infrastructure

Berry College's campus infrastructure shapes everything about this postal zone. The 1.52 square miles contain academic buildings, residence halls, and campus facilities rather than residential streets. The workforce data shows 879 people employed in educational services, representing the core function of this community. An additional 277 workers in arts, entertainment, and recreation likely staff campus athletic facilities, museums, and student programs.

Student Population Characteristics

The demographics reveal a transient student population rather than permanent residents. Only 51 households have internet subscriptions because most students access campus networks through institutional connections. The lack of street delivery infrastructure means students and faculty living on campus maintain PO Boxes for personal mail, while campus mail services handle inter-department correspondence through internal routing systems that don't appear in standard postal records.

Street Name Patterns

Named For Founder

The single street route follows Martha Berry Highway NW, named for the college's founder. This isn't a street network but the main campus artery connecting Berry College to Rome, Georgia and the surrounding area.
