Geographic Context

The ZIP code operates as a small hub for the surrounding area, typical of coastal communities where scattered homes and seasonal weather make centralized mail pickup practical. Pacific County's geography shapes how mail reaches people here. The bay-facing location means many properties don't have traditional street addresses, relying instead on the post office as their consistent point of contact.

Street Name Patterns

Coastal Names Minimal Infrastructure

With only Sandridge Road receiving delivery, this reflects a small coastal community where most residents use PO Boxes. The single street name doesn't indicate isolation but rather the peninsula's linear geography where properties spread along the bay rather than clustering in a traditional town grid.
