Key Facts
  • The post office maintains 22 PO Boxes for a community of just 10 households, serving surrounding areas at more than twice the local population.
  • This is one of Indiana's smallest ZIP codes by land area, covering only 0.0046 square miles.
  • Only one street (Seneca Street) has carrier delivery records in the entire ZIP code.
  • With 15 total housing units and 10 occupied, the vacancy rate is 33%, all year-round vacancies rather than seasonal properties.
  • The adoption rate of 2.2 indicates this post office functions as a regional hub for nearby areas without their own carrier delivery.
  • Census data shows 34 residents with a median age of 35.8 years, slightly younger than typical rural communities.

Geographic Scale

The ZIP covers only 0.0046 square miles, making it one of Indiana's smallest postal zones by land area. The entire delivery zone contains just one street with carrier service: Seneca Street. The ZIP-4 database shows two street delivery records and two PO Box-specific records, plus one named building (the post office itself, addressed to "Postmaster"). This is a true PO Box-only ZIP, meaning residents here don't have alternative delivery options.

Demographics

The community's median age is 35.8 years, slightly younger than the national average. Of the 15 total housing units, 10 are occupied and 5 stand vacant. Census data shows the population is predominantly white (33 of 34 residents), with one resident identifying as two or more races. There are no seasonal or vacation properties listed for this ZIP code.

Regional Service Pattern

The high PO Box adoption rate relative to the local population suggests Tunnelton's post office serves as a mail collection point for people living in nearby unincorporated areas. This pattern is common in rural Indiana, where small communities maintain post offices that provide PO Box service to surrounding areas that lack street delivery infrastructure.

Street Name Patterns

Single Street

The entire ZIP code contains just one street with delivery records. Seneca Street accounts for all carrier delivery in this tiny community, while the majority of mail service happens through the PO Box system.
