Overview
Understanding ZIP code 70580
ZIP code 70580 is assigned to Reddell, LA, and falls within Evangeline 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 224 people live inside it.
At 1,600 residents per square mile spread over 0.14 square miles, 70580 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.
Household earnings run below the national median. At $59,375, 70580 sits in the lower half, ahead of 31% of them. The US median for comparison is $70,109. Bear in mind that median income describes the midpoint household, not the average — it is not pulled upward by a handful of very high earners the way a mean would be.
Living here
What life in Reddell looks like
The building stock is dominated by detached single-family houses, which account for 75.8% of housing units here. The median construction year is 1994, making the housing here from the later twentieth century.
The population skews older than the national median, with a median age of 51.6 against 42 nationally. Households average just 1.67 people, and 56.7% consist of one person living alone — a signature of areas with a lot of studio and one-bedroom stock.
Getting to work takes 9.4 minutes on average one way. The dominant mode is drove alone at 100.0% of workers.

Practical uses
What ZIP code 70580 is used for
Beyond addressing mail, 70580 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, 70580 offers a compact profile of Reddell: 224 residents, a median household income of $59,375, 0.0% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher, and an unemployment rate of 0.0%. 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. 70580 may cover parts of several distinct areas, and a single neighbourhood in Reddell 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.
