Coolbaugh Township ZIP Code Coverage
Coolbaugh Township does not have a verified township-wide postal boundary map in the research record. What can be stated is narrower: the official local sources document Coolbaugh connections to the Tobyhanna and Pocono Summit postal labels, with a carefully qualified Pocono Lake label on an official Coolbaugh-addressed permit context. Treat the table as a record of confirmed postal connections, not an exhaustive map of every delivery route that may cross the township.
| Postal code | Verified Coolbaugh connection | Post-office reference | Research caution |
|---|---|---|---|
| 18466 | Tobyhanna postal community, Township Municipal Center, and Coolbaugh Two, Three, and Four polling sites | Tobyhanna Post Office | A postal routing label, not a township boundary. |
| 18346 | Pocono Summit postal community and Coolbaugh One polling location | Pocono Summit Post Office listing | Documents a civic address, not complete ZIP coverage. |
| 18347 | Pocono Lake mailing label on a Coolbaugh-addressed official environmental-permit and Arrowhead context | No local post-office detail captured | Verify each address; no official overlap map was located. |
The Tobyhanna Post Office is at 659 Main Street, Tobyhanna, PA 18466-9998, 570-894-8211. The source also identifies a Pocono Summit Post Office listing at 2657 Route 940, Pocono Summit, PA 18346-9998. Those locations help identify postal service points. They do not convert either code into a line around all of Coolbaugh Township.
Coolbaugh Township ZIP Postal Labels
Use the USPS ZIP Code Lookup with the complete street number and address when the question is delivery routing. It is the appropriate address-level verifier. A ZIP label can be useful when comparing an old mailing line with a current record, but it does not settle which municipality keeps the parcel, permit, or tax record. The county parcel tools provide the second check.
The USPS screen below is the first step in a Coolbaugh Township ZIP code directory workflow. Entering a full address is more reliable than assuming that a community name applies to every road or development nearby.
After USPS returns the postal assignment, use the address in the county property or GIS system to confirm the parcel's municipal jurisdiction before tying it to Coolbaugh Township.
Coolbaugh Township ZIP Code Workflow
No inspected county tool offers a ZIP-wide resident filter. That changes the right method for a Coolbaugh Township ZIP code search. Verify a specific address first, then move through parcel and official request channels. This avoids implying that a code by itself produces a complete list of people or parcels. A township parcel, owner record, and voter registration record each answer different questions.
- Enter the full address in USPS ZIP Code Lookup and preserve the returned postal line.
- Search the same address in Monroe County Assessment or the public GIS to confirm the parcel and municipality.
- Use the property record only for its owner-associated parcel information, not as a list of every person at an address.
- For a road-specific registration question, request a defined Street List or Walking List from Monroe County Elections rather than treating a ZIP result as a voter list.
- When the research narrows to a road, use the Coolbaugh Township street directory for the address-based parcel and recorded-document path.
Monroe County's voter-information request route describes Street Lists and Walking Lists by street. A Street List includes name, residential and mailing addresses, party, and active or inactive status; the Walking List omits the mailing address. Neither list is a household census, and current county requirements should be checked with the request form.
Coolbaugh Township ZIP Code Search Limits
The county's two main parcel interfaces were inspected for their actual search modes. Monroe County Public Property Search describes Property Number, Name, Address, and Map Number keys. The Monroe County Public GIS Search exposes Address, Owner, Parcel ID, and Street Name modes. Neither inspected interface showed a ZIP filter.
| Official tool | Verified search keys | ZIP-specific mode |
|---|---|---|
| Monroe Assessment | Property Number, Name, Address, Map Number | Not advertised or observed |
| Monroe Public GIS | Address, Owner, Parcel ID, Street Name | Not shown in the inspected interface |
| USPS ZIP Code Lookup | Complete address for postal routing verification | Address-level verification, not a parcel or resident filter |
| Monroe voter requests | Defined Street List or Walking List request | By-street route documented, not a ZIP-search interface |
Monroe County Assessment's property-resource page is the source for the county property-search route shown below. Use it after an address is known, then compare the parcel's municipality field with the postal result.
The property-search resource complements postal checking by providing the county address and parcel path. It does not turn 18466, 18346, or 18347 into a complete county search key.
Note: A missing ZIP filter is a tool limit, not evidence that an address lies outside Coolbaugh Township or outside a postal community.
Coolbaugh Township ZIP Address Types
Keep three address identifiers separate in Coolbaugh Township research. The situs or physical address is the on-the-ground location used by GIS and address searches. The mailing address is the correspondence route, and Monroe Assessment has a signed change process for it. The legal description is the lot, block, subdivision, or other title description used in recorded documents and plans. A zoning form likewise separates physical address, PIN, development or lot details, and owner or applicant addresses.
- ZIP code
- A postal routing label for delivery. It is not a municipal-boundary finding.
- ZIP+4
- An added delivery detail used with a ZIP code. It should not be used as a parcel-jurisdiction substitute.
- PO-box ZIP
- A code associated with post-office box delivery. No PO-box-only Coolbaugh assignment was verified in this research.
- Unique ZIP
- A ZIP assigned to a single organization or facility. No such Coolbaugh assignment was verified here.
- Carrier route
- A postal delivery grouping. It is not the legal description or a municipal boundary of a property.
Capture all three property identifiers when comparing an old postal line to a deed, map, permit, or assessment card. A present mailing address may help follow correspondence, but it does not prove physical presence at the situs address.
Coolbaugh Township ZIP Code Boundaries
Postal labels and municipal boundaries answer different questions. Coolbaugh Township's Municipal Center and several precinct sites use the Tobyhanna label, while Coolbaugh One's polling location uses Pocono Summit. Those examples establish local civic geography, not the edge of a ZIP or the edge of a precinct. The Pocono Lake label is even more limited in the available record and should be checked at the individual-address level.
Municipal identity should come from County GIS or Assessment, with the parcel, municipality, and legal description checked against the date being researched. Postal verification belongs with USPS. This two-part method protects against a common records error: treating a familiar mailing locality as the government unit that owns the record.
Coolbaugh Township ZIP Addressing
County Planning's E-911 Readdressing Project is the authority that assigns addresses for new construction, adds new roads, and maintains the Master Street Address Guide. It began in 2010. The 2025 report says the project was approaching 30,000 address-assignment or correction calls and included about 750 in 2025. Those figures show why a current postal line or street number may need to be matched carefully with earlier property research.
Coolbaugh Township links an E-911 Readdressing Ordinance and sign guidance, but the available machine-readable material did not supply an effective date, road-by-road conversion table, or a township-wide numbering pattern. Historic research should therefore use the road name, cross road, development name, tax map, lot or block, and legal description in addition to the current ZIP code and house number.
Note: The E-911 project documents address administration, not a new ZIP boundary or a complete conversion list for historic Coolbaugh Township roads.
Tobyhanna ZIP and Coolbaugh Township
The village of Tobyhanna is in Coolbaugh Township. Tobyhanna Township is a different municipality, formed in 1830. That name collision is especially important when a search begins with the Tobyhanna postal label. A record's township, parcel, and year should be checked before it is assigned to the right office or historical context.
Historic names add another layer. The township history references Drover's Home, Forks, Naglesville, Pocono Summit, Saxville, Tobyhanna Mills, and Warnertown; Mount Pocono was part of Coolbaugh before it became an independent borough in 1927. A record may use one of those older local labels. Test it against the parcel or legal description rather than assuming that a later ZIP name describes the same municipal geography.
Coolbaugh Township ZIP Research Scope
The careful scope for this Coolbaugh Township ZIP code directory is three verified postal connections: 18466 and 18346 in documented civic geography, plus a limited address-specific 18347 lead. No official USPS, Census, or county map found in the research establishes every ZIP overlap with the township. Nearby labels such as Mount Pocono or Gouldsboro should not be added merely because a route may cross a boundary.
A full address, a USPS result, and a county parcel result form the useful minimum. Add a voter request only when a defined street question calls for it, and observe the current confidentiality and request rules. This keeps ZIP code research tied to the actual access channels instead of overstating what a postal label can reveal about Coolbaugh Township residents.
