Overview

Understanding ZIP code 43439

ZIP code 43439 is assigned to Lacarne, OH, and falls within Ottawa County. Like every US postal code, it began as a mail-routing device rather than a geographic boundary — the US Postal Service groups delivery routes under a single code so carriers and sorting equipment can process mail efficiently. Today it also serves as a practical shorthand for the area itself: roughly 31 people live inside it.

At 1,476 residents per square mile spread over 0.021 square miles, 43439 reads as a suburban area. It is a sparsely populated postal code, and density shapes almost everything else on this page — how people get to work, whether they own or rent, and what housing costs.

Where to stay

Where to stay in Lacarne, OH

For reference, Chicago, IL is about 237.9 miles away in a straight line, which is worth factoring in if you are comparing a stay here against one closer to the city centre.

Practical uses

What ZIP code 43439 is used for

Beyond addressing mail, 43439 does a lot of quiet administrative work. Retailers use it to calculate shipping and sales tax at checkout. Insurers use it to set premiums, since risk profiles vary geographically. Employers and marketers use it to define service areas. Government agencies use it to route benefits and organise reporting. If you have ever been asked for a postal code by a form that clearly does not intend to send you anything, this is why.

For anyone weighing a move, 43439 offers a compact profile of Lacarne: 31 residents, and 0.0% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher. A handful of figures like these answer more relocation questions than most neighbourhood guides do.

One caution worth repeating: a postal code is not a neighbourhood. 43439 may cover parts of several distinct areas, and a single neighbourhood in Lacarne may be split across more than one code. Boundaries also shift as USPS adjusts delivery routes. Treat the figures here as describing a delivery area, which is what they actually measure.

On accuracy. ACS figures are survey estimates, not counts. The margin of error shown alongside the population figure means the true value has a 90% chance of falling in that range. For small ZIP codes the error can be large relative to the estimate — treat the direction as more reliable than the exact number. This page reports data for ZCTA 43439, the Census approximation of the USPS delivery area.
