Eagarville is one of Illinois's smallest incorporated postal communities. This tiny Macoupin County settlement has just 101 residents living in 35 households. It's classified as a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative delivery method for the immediate area despite limited rural carrier service on South Mount Olive Road.
The post office maintains 32 PO Boxes for 35 occupied homes, a 91% adoption rate that indicates near-universal reliance on box service. One rural route serves addresses along South Mount Olive Road, but the community primarily depends on the post office for mail access. With just one business establishment and zero seasonal housing, Eagarville functions as a permanent residential community rather than a commercial or vacation area.
Demographics show a stable, working-class population. Median household income of $71,250 sits above the rural Illinois average. Nearly all residents (97%) own their homes, with a median value of $65,600 reflecting affordable rural property. The median age of 41.5 years indicates a mix of working adults and families. Notably, 41% of workers are employed in transportation, warehousing, or utilities, suggesting proximity to logistics corridors or distribution centers. Another 24% work from home, a pattern increasingly common in rural communities with broadband access.
Mail should be addressed to PO Box numbers with Eagarville, IL 62023. The community is geographically contained within the larger ZIP code 62069, but maintains its own post office and ZIP designation.
Single street in postal database reflects the community's tiny geographic footprint.
ZIP Code 62023 has 101 residents and 35 households (average 2.89 persons per household). The median age is 41.5 years, slightly older than the state (38.8) and slightly older than the nation (38.8).
