Key Facts

  • Only one street appears in postal records: Anderson Trail, served by Highway Contract Route H.
  • The ZIP covers 4.5 square miles with a population of just 16 people, creating one of Arkansas's most sparsely populated postal zones.
  • All housing consists of single-family detached homes, with no apartments, condos, or mobile homes recorded.
  • The population-to-household ratio of 5.3 people per home exceeds typical averages, suggesting extended family living arrangements.
  • No seasonal or vacation housing exists in this ZIP code, distinguishing it from resort or recreational areas.

Regional Mail Service Beyond Town Limits

Yorktown's post office serves a wider area than the immediate community suggests. With just 16 residents and 3 occupied households, the ZIP maintains 12 PO Boxes. That's an adoption rate of 4.0, meaning the facility holds four times as many boxes as local housing units. This pattern points to regional service that extends beyond town limits.

Why the Adoption Rate Exceeds Local Population

The explanation lies in Yorktown's role as a mail hub for surrounding areas without carrier delivery. Residents from nearby unincorporated areas and rural properties drive to this post office because it's their designated service point. The adoption rate reflects this broader reach, not local demand alone.

How Mail Delivery Actually Works

Highway Contract Route H serves the single documented street delivery point on Anderson Trail. Most mail service happens inside the post office itself, where box holders pick up packages and correspondence. A General Delivery route supplements the system for those without assigned boxes.

Rural Lincoln County Context

Lincoln County's rural character shapes how postal service works here. The ZIP covers 4.5 square miles of largely undeveloped land, with water features accounting for 0.03 square miles. Population density stays minimal, with development clustered along Anderson Trail rather than spread across a traditional street grid.

Demographics and Housing Patterns

The Census reports a median age of 37.5 years and a total of 5 housing units, though only 3 show as occupied. The high population-to-household ratio of 5.3 suggests extended families or multi-generational living arrangements. No seasonal housing exists here, and no one works from home according to available economic data. All 12 occupied units consist of single-family detached homes, reflecting the area's rural residential character.

Street Name Patterns

Single Street Trail Designation Minimal Infrastructure

With just one documented street, Anderson Trail represents the entirety of Yorktown's postal delivery infrastructure. The 'Trail' designation suggests informal development patterns typical of rural Arkansas communities, where roads evolved from paths rather than planned subdivisions.
