Key Facts
  • The post office maintains 70 PO Boxes while only 6 people live within the ZIP code boundaries
  • The adoption rate of 35.0 means this facility serves 35 times more customers than local housing units suggest
  • Only 2 occupied housing units exist in the entire ZIP code area
  • W Broadway St is the only street with delivery records, containing just 3 delivery points
  • This is classified as a PO Box-only zone with no practical street delivery alternative
  • The facility serves scattered rural populations across Vermillion County who lack carrier delivery

Regional Service Beyond Local Boundaries

Saint Bernice's post office tells a story about rural Indiana mail delivery. Just six people live within this ZIP code's boundaries, yet the post office maintains 70 PO Boxes. That adoption rate of 35.0 means this small facility serves surrounding communities across Vermillion County where carrier delivery isn't available.

PO Box-Only Operations

The ZIP code itself covers minimal area and has virtually no street delivery infrastructure. W Broadway St appears in the records with three delivery points, but with only two occupied housing units in the entire zone, this is functionally a PO Box-only operation. The post office serves as the regional mail hub for scattered rural populations that don't appear in this ZIP's census counts.

Rural Mail Patterns

This pattern is common in rural Indiana. When farms and homes spread across township roads without formal street addresses, residents from multiple surrounding areas use the nearest post office. Saint Bernice's 70 boxes serve a customer base that lives elsewhere but depends on this facility for reliable mail service.

Demographics and Regional Role

The median age of 43.3 years reflects Indiana's aging rural population, though with only six residents in the ZIP boundary, this figure has limited statistical meaning. What matters more is the post office's role: it's not serving a town of six people. It's serving dozens of rural households across a broader region where home delivery isn't practical.

Street Name Patterns

Minimal Street Infrastructure

Only one street appears in delivery records. W Broadway St has three delivery points, representing the minimal street delivery infrastructure in this PO Box-dominant facility.
