Kipling is a small unincorporated community in Guernsey County, Ohio, covering just under one square mile in the rolling hills of southeastern Ohio. The ZIP code serves 145 residents across 55 households, making it one of the state's smallest postal service areas. Despite its PO Box classification in USPS records, Kipling doesn't actually have PO Boxes at this location. Instead, mail arrives via two rural carrier routes serving homes on streets like Primrose Street, McKinley Street, and Dewey Street.
This is a historic community. Of the 61 total housing units, 54 were built before 1939, giving Kipling a distinctly early 20th-century character. Median home values stand at $81,000, and the median age is 34.3 years. The population is 90% White, with 17% Hispanic or Latino residents. Nearly all delivery points (47) are single-family homes, with just 2 business locations.
Mail delivery in Kipling operates through rural carrier routes rather than PO Boxes or city delivery. The ZIP code classification as a PO Box ZIP is a legacy designation that doesn't match current operations. Cambridge is also an accepted city name for mailing addresses to this ZIP code.
The community's compact size means it has no business establishments recorded in Census data and limited economic statistics. Per capita income is $24,493. Most workers commute elsewhere, with 16 driving alone, 8 carpooling, and 10 using public transportation. About 18 residents work in accommodation and food services, 24 in transportation and warehousing, and 18 in federal government positions.
Owner-occupied homes make up 87% of occupied housing (48 of 55 households), with just 7 renter-occupied units. The dominance of pre-1939 construction and high homeownership rate indicates a stable, long-established community.
