Overview
Understanding ZIP code 15948
ZIP code 15948 is assigned to Revloc, PA, and falls within Cambria 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 343 people live inside it.
At 557 residents per square mile spread over 0.616 square miles, 15948 reads as a small-town 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 $52,845, 15948 sits in the lower half, ahead of 20% 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 Revloc looks like
Housing in 15948 costs below the national median. A typical home is valued at $130,800 against a US median of $207,500. Ownership dominates: 92.0% of occupied homes are owner-occupied, which usually signals an established residential area with relatively low turnover.
The building stock is dominated by detached single-family houses, which account for 92.0% of housing units here. The median construction year is 1945, making the housing here mid-century. At 0.0%, vacancy is low — housing here is tightly held.
The population skews considerably older than the national median, with a median age of 52.8 against 42 nationally. Households average just 1.95 people, and 31.2% consist of one person living alone — a signature of areas with a lot of studio and one-bedroom stock.
Getting to work takes 14.6 minutes on average one way. The dominant mode is drove alone at 85.8% of workers, while 14.2% work from home. Commute patterns are one of the better proxies for how a place actually functions day to day.

Practical uses
What ZIP code 15948 is used for
Beyond addressing mail, 15948 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, 15948 offers a compact profile of Revloc: 343 residents, a median household income of $52,845, 12.5% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher, and an unemployment rate of 12.9%. 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. 15948 may cover parts of several distinct areas, and a single neighbourhood in Revloc 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.
