Stockbridge sits in rural Calumet County, Wisconsin, about 11 miles south of Appleton. With 279 residents in 136 households, it's a compact village where the post office handles all mail. This is a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative to PO Box delivery within this ZIP code.
The village maintains 142 PO Boxes for its 136 households, a 1.04 adoption rate. That near-perfect match suggests the post office serves primarily local residents rather than a wider regional area. Rural carrier routes deliver to addresses on S Military Road, Union Street, Enterprise Street, and Church Street, but the PO Box-only classification means anyone wanting mail must pick it up at the post office.
Stockbridge has remarkably old housing stock. Of the 144 total housing units, 140 were built before 1939. This isn't a subdivision or planned development. It's a historic Wisconsin village that predates modern postal infrastructure. Street names like Union Street, Enterprise Street, School Street, and Court Street suggest a 19th-century town layout.
The local economy tilts heavily toward transportation and warehousing. Of the employed residents, 93 work in transportation, warehousing, or utilities. That's a significant concentration for a village this size, likely tied to trucking and logistics serving the Fox Valley region. Median household income sits at $58,000, with homes valued around $163,300. About 21% of workers work from home.
Street names like Union, Enterprise, Church, School, and Court suggest a traditional 19th-century village layout.
