Red Oak sits in southern Fulton County, Georgia, just south of Atlanta's city limits. This ZIP doesn't serve a traditional town. It's a small commercial hub along Roosevelt Highway (US Route 29/Georgia State Route 14) that provides mail services to a much larger surrounding area.
The Red Oak post office maintains 336 PO Boxes despite having only 3 occupied households within the ZIP's 0.055 square mile footprint. That's an adoption rate of 112 boxes per household. This extreme ratio makes sense when you realize the ZIP serves 110 business delivery points and 9 business establishments employing 218 people. Businesses from East Point, College Park, and surrounding South Fulton neighborhoods use Red Oak addresses.
Roosevelt Highway dominates the address landscape with 95 of the 108 street-type delivery records. The highway corridor contains commercial suites and units, reflected in the secondary address types (STE, UNIT). Other streets like Bailey Street, Church Street, and Delano Road handle minimal delivery points each.
This is a PO Box Only Zone. While the ZIP has some carrier delivery routes (both city and rural routes exist), most mail users rely on PO Boxes. The 25 residents within the ZCTA boundary are a tiny fraction of the people and businesses this post office serves. Nearby neighborhoods like Heritage Park (0.8 miles away) and Princeton Lakes (2.1 miles away) fall outside this ZIP but likely use Red Oak for mail.
Of the 25 residents counted here, 72% are Black or African American, with a median age of 47.2 years. But residential population isn't the story. The business presence is what defines Red Oak: a commercial corridor providing regional mail access in metro Atlanta's southern suburbs.
