The 158 residents live in an exceptionally compact area. While Greene County stretches across rural eastern North Carolina, this ZIP covers less than half a square mile. Everyone here depends on PO Box delivery. There's no street delivery option, making the post office the only way to receive mail. The single street in the postal database, Highway 903 N, reflects the rural character of this crossroads community.
The people who travel here for PO Boxes come from farms and homes scattered across the countryside. Rural areas without carrier routes need a central location for mail, and Maury's post office fills that role. The 23 businesses and 6 establishments in the area also rely on this facility. With a median household income of $70,000, this isn't a struggling community. It's simply one where geography dictates PO Box usage.
At a median age of 34.3, Maury has a relatively young population for rural North Carolina. The 63 occupied housing units translate to an average household size of 2.5 people. The post office here doesn't just serve a town. It serves as the mail hub for a dispersed rural population that has no other delivery option.
Only one street appears in postal records, Highway 903 N, which serves as the main thoroughfare through this rural crossroads community.
