Bagdad is a small unincorporated community in Santa Rosa County, Florida, serving as a regional mail hub for the area north of Pensacola. Despite a local population of just 142 residents living in 60 households, the Bagdad post office maintains 226 PO Boxes. This 3.8x adoption rate shows the post office serves far beyond the immediate community, providing mail access to surrounding rural areas and residents from nearby Pace and other communities in the region.
This is designated as a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative mail delivery option across the service territory. However, limited street delivery does exist within the core community. Forsyth Street, the main address in the ZIP+4 records, has 43 delivery points with unit designators, suggesting a small residential or business concentration. The post office also serves 43 business delivery points, indicating commercial activity beyond what the small resident population would suggest.
Bagdad sits on the banks of the Blackwater River in northwestern Florida's panhandle region. The community has a median age of 39.6 years and is predominantly White (75%), with homeownership extremely high at 97% (58 of 60 occupied homes are owner-occupied). Only 2 households rent. The area has a working-class character, with employment concentrated in transportation and warehousing (16 workers) and educational services and health care (10 workers).
The ZIP code has MultiPoint geometry rather than defined territory, meaning it exists as a point location enclosed within the larger ZIP 32583. This postal configuration reflects Bagdad's role as a service facility rather than a traditional town with clear boundaries. The post office acts as a regional gathering point where people from miles around come to collect mail, packages, and conduct postal business.
Forsyth Street dominates with 43 records featuring unit designators, suggesting a small concentrated development.
ZIP Code 32530 has 142 residents and 60 households (average 2.37 persons per household). The median age is 39.6 years, younger than the state (43.0) and about the same as the nation (38.8). The gender split is 47.2% male and 52.8% female, which is slightly lower than the national male share (49.1%), making this a female-majority area. Largest groups are White (74.6%, much higher than the state average of 57.7% and well above the national average of 61.6%) and Hispanic or Latino (10.6%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 10.6%, which is much lower than the state average (26.5%).
