Overview

Understanding ZIP code 44825

ZIP code 44825 is assigned to Chatfield, OH, and falls within Crawford 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 166 people live inside it.

At 1,694 residents per square mile spread over 0.098 square miles, 44825 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 are well below the national median. At $47,500, 44825 ranks among the lower-income postal codes, ahead of 13% 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 Chatfield looks like

Housing in 44825 costs well below the national median. A typical home is valued at $74,400 against a US median of $207,500, and median gross rent runs $813 a month. Ownership dominates: 86.0% 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 96.8% of housing units here. The median construction year is 1938, making the housing here largely pre-war.

The population skews younger than the country as a whole, with a median age of 31.5 against 42 nationally. Households are relatively large at 3.32 people on average, with 70.0% classified as family households.

Getting to work takes 32.9 minutes on average one way. The dominant mode is drove alone at 86.7% of workers.

Where to stay

Where to stay in Chatfield, OH

Chatfield is largely suburban in character. Accommodation here skews toward mid-range chain hotels and extended-stay properties positioned near highway junctions and business parks, which suits anyone driving in or visiting for work rather than sightseeing.

Local costs are modest — median rent here is $813 a month — and accommodation prices in the area tend to be correspondingly reasonable. For reference, Chicago, IL is about 251.1 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 44825 is used for

Beyond addressing mail, 44825 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, 44825 offers a compact profile of Chatfield: 166 residents, a median household income of $47,500, 8.0% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher, and an unemployment rate of 54.9%. 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. 44825 may cover parts of several distinct areas, and a single neighbourhood in Chatfield 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 44825 cover more than one city or county?

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.
