Hooven is a small riverfront village in Hamilton County, Ohio, with just 323 residents across 0.32 square miles. Despite its classification as a PO Box ZIP code, Hooven doesn't have any PO boxes at all. Mail arrives via a single rural carrier route that serves 136 households and 13 businesses.
The village has deep roots. Most housing dates to before 1939, and the street grid follows a presidential naming pattern: Jefferson Avenue, Monroe Avenue, Adams Street, Madison Street, Washington Street, and Jackson Street. Hooven Avenue is the main thoroughfare with 16 delivery points, while Chidlaw Avenue and Ohio Avenue each have apartment buildings.
This isn't a PO Box Only Zone, and street delivery is the only option. With a median age of 40.5 years and a median household income of $43,125, Hooven is a working-class community where 65% of homes are owner-occupied. Only 12.5% of adults hold bachelor's degrees. The village supports seven small businesses employing 81 people total.
Hooven's classification as a PO Box ZIP is a legacy designation from the postal system's computerization era. The classification stuck even though carrier delivery has been in place for decades. Today, one rural route handles all mail for this compact Ohio River community.
Streets honor U.S. presidents (Jefferson, Monroe, Adams, Madison, Washington, Jackson) plus local names like Hooven Avenue.
