Chautauqua is a small Kansas community in the county of the same name, with 108 residents living in an area of less than a third of a square mile. The town shares its name with the famous Chautauqua movement that spread cultural and educational programming across rural America in the late 1800s. Today it's a quiet place where 78% of residents are white, the median age is 48, and most people have lived here for generations.
This ZIP is classified as a PO Box Only Zone. There's no alternative mail delivery anywhere in the area, so all 26 PO Boxes at the local post office serve as the sole point of mail access. With 45 households in town, the 58% PO Box adoption rate means more than half of homes rely exclusively on a box at the post office. Rural carrier route R001 handles delivery to addresses outside the immediate town grid.
The housing stock tells the story of this town's age. Of the 55 housing units, 46 were built before 1939. That's 84% of all homes predating World War II. Median home values sit at $46,300, making Chautauqua one of the more affordable places in Kansas. About 20% of homes are mobile units, added as the original housing aged.
Street names follow a classic small-town grid: Main Street runs north-south through the center, crossed by Chautauqua Street, Laurel Street, and Champion Street. Franklin, Kiles, and Binn streets fill in the blocks. It's the kind of layout common in Kansas towns platted during the late 1800s settlement period. Nearly 22% of employed residents work from home, a surprisingly high rate for such a small community.
