ZIP Code 04936 health estimates

Franklin County, Maine. 257 residents in the 2020 Census, 239 adults.

A ZIP Code on this page is a Census ZIP Code Tabulation Area (ZCTA). The Census Bureau makes ZCTAs to approximate the areas of postal ZIP Codes. A ZCTA and a postal ZIP Code can differ.

This page is not in the search index. It has been out of the index since 1 Oct 2026. Fewer than 500 residents live in the area, so the intervals are wide.
