Somerville is a tiny community in Gibson County, Indiana, with just 83 residents and 30 households. Despite being classified as a PO Box ZIP code, this location doesn't actually maintain any PO Boxes. The classification appears to be legacy postal metadata from an earlier era when the community had different mail infrastructure.
The single street address in the ZIP+4 database is S Lincoln St, and the only named building is designated POSTMASTER. This suggests Somerville once had a post office facility, though current mail service has been consolidated with the neighboring ZIP 47660, which geographically contains this location. General Delivery service is available through carrier route G001.
Despite its small size, Somerville has an interesting economic profile. About 34% of workers work from home (one of the highest rates in rural Indiana), and 33% work in transportation, warehousing, or utilities. Median household income of $76,250 is notably above the rural Indiana average. With a median age of 41.5 and no residents under 18 in the 2020 Census, this is an older, established community.
Mail for Somerville addresses uses the 47683 ZIP code, but residents likely receive delivery through the Princeton area postal network (ZIP 47660). The community consists of 18 owner-occupied homes and 12 renter-occupied units, with a median home value of $112,500.
Only a single street address exists in postal records, plus a POSTMASTER building designation.
ZIP Code 47683 has 83 residents and 30 households (average 2.77 persons per household). The median age is 41.5 years, older than the state (38.2) and slightly older than the nation (38.8). The gender split is 43.4% male and 56.6% female, which is lower than the state male share (49.3%), making this a female-majority area. Largest groups are White (92.8%, much higher than the state average of 77.2% and well above the national average of 61.6%) and Hispanic or Latino (1.2%); Hispanic or Latino residents make up 1.2%, which is much lower than the national average (18.7%).
