What Olivia Is

A PO Box Only Zone

This is a PO Box Only Zone. There's no street delivery option here. The 27332 ZIP (Sanford) surrounds this location, but for residents of the Olivia area, this small post office is the only choice for receiving mail. People drive in from surrounding subdivisions like Vista Ridge, Cypress Creek Farms, and Leslie Road Estates.

Who Lives Here

The numbers tell a working-class story. Median household income sits at $76,354, and 65 workers are employed in transportation, warehousing, or utilities. Median age is 30, young for a rural community. Every occupied home is owner-occupied.

Historic Crossroads

The Olivia post office functions as a community anchor point for an area without defined municipal boundaries. All 36 local homes predate 1939, suggesting this was once a crossroads community that never incorporated. The post office remains, serving a much larger area than its name would suggest.
