Postal Service Hub

ZIP code 34487 operates as a postal hub within the larger Homosassa community in Citrus County, Florida. The facility maintains 104 PO Boxes while serving a residential population of only 8 people across 3 households. This adoption rate of 34.67 shows that most box holders live elsewhere and travel to this location for mail service.

Delivery Infrastructure

The post office serves one primary street route: West Yulee Drive, which accounts for 95 delivery records. This single street has unit-based addressing, suggesting it may include a small apartment complex or mobile home park. The facility also handles two named building addresses for SUPVSR ACCOUNTABLE PAPER and POSTMASTER, both standard USPS administrative designations.

Geographic Context

This ZIP doesn't represent an independent town. Instead, it's a postal service point that overlaps geographically with ZIP 34448, the main Homosassa ZIP code. Residents here have the option of street delivery through the neighboring ZIP or maintaining a PO Box at this facility. The classification as a PO Box ZIP reflects the USPS administrative structure rather than community isolation.

Local Demographics

The area covers just 0.007 square miles of land with virtually no water area. Census data shows a median age of 43.5 years among the small residential population, with 4 total housing units (3 occupied, 1 vacant). This isn't a seasonal vacation area—the single vacant unit doesn't indicate resort-style seasonal use. The surrounding Citrus County region includes retirement communities like Royal Highlands and Gulf Florida Highlands within 7-14 miles, but this particular postal zone serves a more modest function as a mail collection point.

Street Name Patterns

Single Street Service

With only one street receiving carrier service, West Yulee Drive accounts for all street delivery in this small postal zone. The street name honors David Levy Yulee, Florida's first U.S. Senator and a prominent 19th-century railroad developer in the state.
