A Campus Community

Toccoa Falls, Georgia (ZIP 30598) exists almost entirely for Toccoa Falls College. Of the 44 residents counted in the 2020 Census, 30 live in noninstitutionalized group quarters, which means college dormitories. The median age of 21.5 years confirms this is a campus community, not a traditional town.

How Mail Works at Toccoa Falls College

This ZIP covers just 0.018 square miles in Stephens County. It's one of Georgia's smallest ZIP codes by area. The campus has minimal street infrastructure: mail delivery uses a single rural route serving Chapel Drive and Kincaid Drive. There are no PO Boxes maintained at this location. With only 5 occupied housing units and 44 residents, the ratio of 8.8 people per household shows this isn't typical family housing.

Campus Context

The college itself is known for Toccoa Falls, a 186-foot waterfall on campus grounds. Students and staff receive mail through the rural carrier route rather than individual PO Boxes or campus mailboxes typical of larger universities. The ZIP was established before October 2004, when USPS began tracking introduction dates.

Classification vs. Reality

Despite being classified as a PO Box ZIP by USPS, this location has street delivery and no actual PO Boxes. This classification reflects the ZIP's specialized purpose: serving a single institution rather than a residential community. It isn't a PO Box Only Zone, and residents have access to standard rural route delivery.
