Dunreith is a tiny Indiana hamlet where PO Box service is the only mail option. With just 182 residents and 81 households packed into 0.06 square miles, this Henry County community sits along the old National Road corridor in east-central Indiana. The post office maintains 87 PO Boxes, slightly more than the number of households, indicating it also serves some nearby rural residents.
Every home in Dunreith predates 1939. Census data shows 86 housing units built before that year, making this a village frozen in time architecturally. Washington Street is the only named street in the ZIP+4 database, running through the heart of town. Homeownership runs high at 79%, with a median home value of $99,000.
The population skews working-age with a median age of 39.8 years. Median household income sits at $59,375, close to the national median. An unusually high percentage of workers (84 of the working population) are employed in transportation, warehousing, and utilities, likely commuting to jobs along the Interstate 70 corridor or in nearby New Castle. Only 6.1% of adults hold bachelor's degrees, well below the national average.
Dunreith is designated a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no street delivery available here. Residents must use a PO Box for all mail. The post office facility code indicates this is a full post office (not a branch or station). Both city and rural carrier routes pass through the area, but they don't deliver to Dunreith addresses.
Washington Street is the only named street, reflecting the village's compact footprint along the historic National Road.
