Frisco sits at 9,075 feet in Summit County, Colorado, where 58% of homes are used seasonally. Of the 5,360 housing units in this mountain community, 3,125 are vacant most of the year. The 1,853 year-round households support a population of 4,170, but those numbers swell dramatically during ski season when second homeowners and vacation renters fill condos along Main Street and neighborhoods near Lake Dillon.
The Frisco post office maintains 2,729 PO Boxes for a community with 1,853 occupied homes. That's a 1.47x adoption rate. Many factors drive this pattern. Second homeowners need year-round mail access even when they're not in town. Vacation rentals use boxes for property management. The town also serves nearby Copper Mountain, which appears as a non-mailing alias in postal records. Street delivery exists (with 2 city routes, 1 rural route, and 1 highway contract route covering 140 square miles), but PO Boxes remain popular for reliability and convenience.
Main Street is the commercial center, with 310 delivery points on West Main Street alone. Street names tell the story of a former mining camp turned ski town. Galena Street, Granite Street, Pitkin Street, and Miners Creek Road reference the 1870s silver boom. Alpine Drive, Peak One Drive, and Ten Mile Circle point to the modern outdoor recreation economy. The community spreads from the compact downtown grid (numbered avenues from 1st to 8th) to subdivisions with names like Creekside, Lakepoint, and Bayview, all referencing the proximity to Lake Dillon.
With a median home value of $844,400 and per capita income of $66,537, Frisco serves both affluent second homeowners and working residents who staff the ski industry. The median age of 40.6 skews younger than typical resort towns. Notably, 24% of workers work from home, double the national average. These are remote professionals who chose mountain living. The demographic breakdown shows 88% white, 10% Hispanic, and small percentages of other groups, consistent with Colorado ski country patterns.

This isn't a PO Box Only Zone. Street delivery works throughout town. However, if you own a second home or vacation rental, a PO Box offers year-round reliability regardless of occupancy.
Street names blend 1870s silver mining history (Galena, Granite, Pitkin, Miners Creek) with modern ski town character (Alpine, Peak One, Ten Mile) and lakeside location (Lakepoint, Bayview, Marina).
