Why PO Boxes Dominate

The postal system reflects Old San Juan's unique character as a dense historic quarter built on a small peninsula. With minimal land area and buildings dating to Spanish colonial times, traditional carrier routes don't work here. The single street designation, Paseo de Colón, covers 214 ZIP+4 records that all reference unit numbers rather than individual addresses. This isn't a small town in the traditional sense but rather a specialized postal zone serving Puerto Rico's most historic neighborhood.

Street Name Patterns

Historic Spanish Colonial Single Street Designation Unit Based Addressing

Old San Juan's street addressing system uses Paseo de Colón as the single street designation with unit-based addressing for the 214 ZIP+4 records. This reflects the historic district's compact urban form and colonial-era street layout that doesn't align with modern carrier route systems.
