The post office maintains 96 PO Boxes for the area. That's twice the number of local households, which means the facility serves people from surrounding areas who lack street delivery options. Two rural carrier routes cover Old Philadelphia Pike, Queen Road, and Center Street. The PO Box adoption rate of 2.0 shows this post office functions as more than just a local facility.
Old Philadelphia Pike dominates the street layout, reflecting the area's position along a historic route. The limited number of streets and tight geographic area create a compact service zone for the two rural carrier routes.
