ZIP Code 93234 in Huron, CA

Community Overview

Huron is an agricultural community in California's Central Valley, covering 112 square miles of Fresno County farmland. With 6,745 residents spread across this rural territory, it's one of the more populated PO Box-only ZIP codes in the state. The town sits at the heart of some of California's most productive agricultural land.

Postal Services: PO Box Only Territory

This is a PO Box Only Zone. There's no alternative mail delivery across the entire 112 square mile territory. The Huron post office maintains 2,235 PO Boxes serving 1,705 households, resulting in a 1.31 adoption rate that indicates service extending to surrounding farms and ranch properties beyond the town itself. Two rural carrier routes handle limited street delivery within the community, but PO Boxes are the primary mail access method for residents and agricultural operations alike.

An Agricultural Workforce

The town has a distinct agricultural character. Of the local workforce, 1,392 people work in agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting, making it by far the dominant employment sector. Another 2,178 workers are employed in transportation and warehousing, supporting the region's farming operations. Street names like Azteca Boulevard, Guadalupe Street, and San Joaquin Avenue speak to the community's heritage. The numbered grid (1st through 14th Streets) and lettered streets (L, M, N, O, P Streets) form the town's compact core.

Demographics and Economics

Huron's population is predominantly working-class. Median household income stands at $44,353, with per capita income of $16,409. Households average 3.96 people, larger than the national norm, typical of multi-generational and extended family living arrangements common in agricultural communities. The median age is 28.1 years, younger than most rural areas. Only 3.0% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher, one of the lowest rates in California. Of the 1,705 occupied housing units, 73% are rentals (1,246 renter-occupied vs 459 owner-occupied), which isn't unusual for communities where many residents are seasonal or migrant agricultural workers.

Local Economy

The town's 54 business establishments employ 466 people, a modest commercial base that serves daily needs but doesn't provide employment for most residents who work in surrounding agricultural operations. The town functions as a residential and service hub for workers farming the vast acreage of cotton, tomatoes, lettuce, and other crops that define this section of the San Joaquin Valley.
