ZIP code 81658 serves Vail, Colorado, one of North America's premier ski destinations. This isn't a geographic territory with residents. It's a point-only ZIP nested inside 81657, created specifically to handle the massive mail volume generated by the resort.
The post office maintains 1,780 PO Boxes here despite recording zero permanent population. That's because 81658 exists for resort operations, vacation rentals, and businesses rather than year-round residents. With 366 business delivery points and 37 establishments employing 477 workers, this ZIP handles mail for everything from ski shops to lodges.
All street addresses in 81658 share a single location: N Frontage Rd W along Interstate 70. The 270 address records there use UNIT designators, indicating commercial properties or multi-unit lodging rather than residential homes. Mail requiring a street address typically goes to 81657, which covers Vail's geographic territory.
This ZIP code classification dates to before October 2004. Vail has grown enormously since then, but 81658 remains a specialized PO Box ZIP. Visitors renting condos, second-home owners checking in seasonally, and resort businesses all rely on these boxes. The resort's transient nature makes PO Boxes practical since there's no permanent address for seasonal visitors to receive packages and correspondence.
The only street address is the I-70 frontage road with unit numbers for commercial and lodging properties.
ZIP Code 81658 supports both business and residential activity. According to the Business Census (2024), there are 36 business establishments, employing about 393 people with an annual payroll of $18,044,000.
