The ZIP covers just 0.008 square miles—one of Indiana's smallest postal zones. Within that sliver of land, 55 people live in what amounts to a postal service point rather than a residential community. The 2020 Census recorded 17 occupied housing units and 8 vacant ones, giving Patricksburg 25 total housing units in less than one-hundredth of a square mile.
State Highway 246 runs through this area and accounts for the only street delivery records in the USPS database. Two ZIP+4 records cover street addresses along this route, but six separate records handle the PO Box ranges at the post office. That's where the real mail volume happens.
The median age of 30.8 years is younger than many rural Indiana communities, though with only 55 people, small population shifts change percentages dramatically. One household reported Asian residents in 2020, adding minimal diversity to a predominantly white community. The median household income sits at $22,871, well below state and national averages, though this figure should be interpreted cautiously given the small sample size.
This isn't a traditional town. It's a rural service point where regional postal demand exceeds local population by a significant margin, indicating that residents from unincorporated areas throughout western Owen County depend on Patricksburg's post office for mail service.
Only State Highway 246 has street delivery records, with two ZIP+4 delivery points. The minimal street presence confirms this is primarily a PO Box service location rather than a traditional street delivery community.
ZIP Code 47455 has 55 residents and 17 households (average 3.24 persons per household). The median age is 30.8 years, significantly younger than the state (38.2) and significantly younger than the nation (38.8). The gender split is 52.7% male and 47.3% female, which is higher than the national male share (49.1%), making this a male-majority area. Largest groups are White (89.1%, much higher than the state average of 77.2% and well above the national average of 61.6%) and American Indian & Alaska Native (3.6%, higher than the state average of 0.4%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 0.0%, which is much lower than the national average (18.7%).
