The post office maintains just 3 PO Boxes. With only 4 residential addresses tracked in the spatial data and no recorded population, this isn't a residential community. The handful of streets—Whiskey Creek Road, State Highway 299, and Grizzly Gulch Road—serve recreational access points rather than neighborhoods. One named building receives ZIP+4-specific mail: the Postmaster location itself.
Whiskeytown operates as a gateway to outdoor recreation rather than a place where people live year-round. The 15.9 square mile ZIP includes rugged terrain west of Redding, where the lake and surrounding wilderness attract boaters, hikers, and campers. The minimal PO Box count suggests most park visitors use addresses from nearby communities like Shasta (2.6 miles) or Redding (7.3 miles).
Mail delivery here follows a mixed pattern typical of recreation areas. Two street routes handle the few permanent addresses, while one city carrier route and three rural routes extend across the vast recreational landscape. The POSTMASTER designation as a named building indicates this facility serves administrative functions for the recreation area rather than a conventional residential community.
Street names reflect the area's recreational and wilderness character. Whiskey Creek and Grizzly Gulch reference local natural features, while State Highway 299 provides the main access corridor from Redding to the lake.
