Grant is a small rural community in Allen Parish, Louisiana, where all 254 residents rely on PO Box mail service. This is designated as a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative mail delivery across the 7.15 square mile territory. The Grant post office serves as the sole mail access point for this agricultural area.
The post office maintains 140 PO Boxes for just 78 occupied households, a ratio of 1.8 boxes per home. That adoption rate means the post office serves residents beyond the immediate village, drawing from surrounding areas without their own postal facilities. Rural carrier route delivery reaches some addresses, but most mail goes to PO Boxes at the post office.
Grant's 254 residents form a quiet, working-class community. Median household income sits at $18,883, well below Louisiana's median. Of the 109 housing units, 71 are owner-occupied and just 7 are rented. The median age of 41.3 years and household size of 3.3 people suggest family households. Most residents (89%) are white, with a small Hispanic population of 24 people (9% of the total).
Street names like KC Smith Road, Clint Simmons Road, and Townson Road suggest local family connections. Highway 377 runs through the area, providing the main transportation corridor. The community has no registered business establishments in Census data, indicating residents commute elsewhere for work. About half the workforce drives alone to jobs outside Grant, with another half carpooling or working in transportation.
All mail to Grant addresses must be sent to a PO Box at the Grant Post Office, 70644. Street delivery is not available in this zone.
Roads named after local families serve scattered rural addresses along Highway 377.
ZIP Code 70644 has 254 residents and 78 households (average 3.26 persons per household). The median age is 41.3 years, older than the state (38.1) and slightly older than the nation (38.8).
