Overview

Understanding ZIP code 12924

ZIP code 12924 is assigned to Keeseville, NY, and falls within Clinton 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 230 people live inside it.

At 81 residents per square mile spread over 2.835 square miles, 12924 reads as a rural 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.

Living here

What life in Keeseville looks like

The building stock is dominated by small multi-family buildings of two to four units, which account for 47.7% of housing units here. The median construction year is 1946, making the housing here mid-century. At 0.0%, vacancy is low — housing here is tightly held.

The population skews older than the national median, with a median age of 45.4 against 42 nationally. The average household holds 2.07 people, and 38.7% are family households.

Getting to work takes 37.1 minutes on average one way. The dominant mode is drove alone at 100.0% of workers.

Where to stay

Where to stay in Keeseville, NY

12924 covers a rural area, and accommodation within the postal code itself is likely to be sparse — perhaps a country inn, a lodge or a vacation rental rather than a conventional hotel. Widening the search radius is usually the practical approach, and it also opens up more availability at short notice.

Local costs are modest — median rent here is $891 a month — and accommodation prices in the area tend to be correspondingly reasonable. For reference, Boston, MA is about 193.6 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.

Availability and pricing change constantly, so the live search below will give you a more accurate picture than any figure we could publish here. It opens results for this area on Booking.com.

Practical uses

What ZIP code 12924 is used for

Beyond addressing mail, 12924 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, 12924 offers a compact profile of Keeseville: 230 residents, 0.0% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher, and an unemployment rate of 31.4%. 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. 12924 may cover parts of several distinct areas, and a single neighbourhood in Keeseville 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.

Does 12924 cover more than one city or county?
This page lists Keeseville as the primary place and Clinton County as the county. ZIP codes follow mail delivery routes rather than municipal or county lines, so a single code can straddle boundaries, and USPS also recognises alternate acceptable city names for many codes. If you need the definitive answer for a specific street address, the USPS ZIP Code Lookup is the authority.
Can ZIP code 12924 change?
Yes. USPS adjusts ZIP codes as delivery volumes shift — codes are occasionally split, merged, retired or newly created, and boundaries move more often than most people assume. The Census Bureau's ZCTA definitions, which underpin the demographic figures on this page, are redrawn only once a decade, so the two can drift apart between censuses.

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.
