Monroe Bridge is a tiny rural community in Franklin County, Massachusetts, with just 118 residents and 56 occupied homes spread across 1.87 square miles.

Today, highway contract delivery serves about 21 residential delivery points across 10 streets, including River Road, Davis Road, and Ecology Drive. The PO Box classification reflects the postal system's historical database rather than current mail operations.
