Walker, Kansas is a tiny rural community in Ellis County with just 62 residents spread across 5.4 square miles. Despite being classified as a PO Box ZIP code, Walker doesn't actually have a post office or any PO boxes. Mail arrives via a single rural carrier route that serves 36 households across streets like Walker Avenue, Front Street, and 370th Avenue.
This is a small, aging community. The median age of 56.5 years is well above the national average, and the population-to-household ratio of 1.7 suggests many residents live alone or as couples without children. All 36 occupied housing units are owner-occupied with zero renters, indicating a stable, established community. Only 2 of the 62 residents are under 18.
The community's economic profile shows residents adapt to rural isolation. About 21% work from home, and 40% work in transportation, warehousing, or utilities. Per capita income is $31,186, with median home values around $166,700. Walker has no registered business establishments or commercial employment within the ZIP code itself.
The PO Box classification here is legacy database metadata that doesn't match current reality. Walker residents receive rural carrier delivery to their homes. The classification dates back to before October 2004, when USPS began tracking ZIP code introduction dates, and was never updated despite the presence of street delivery infrastructure.
