This isn't a large community. The ZIP's 80 residents live in a compact 0.28 square mile area along Highway 441 in Rabun County. One rural carrier route handles what little street delivery exists, but the PO Box operation drives the facility's purpose.
The post office sits in Georgia's northeastern corner, where mountain terrain makes delivery infrastructure costly. Residents from nearby unincorporated areas travel to Wiley for postal services rather than maintain delivery routes across scattered properties. The single street with carrier service, Highway 441 South, handles only a handful of delivery points.
At 63 boxes serving 80 people, nearly everyone uses the post office directly. This pattern reflects rural mountain geography where PO Boxes make more practical sense than extending carrier routes to isolated properties. The facility functions as a service point for a wider rural area, not just Wiley's small residential population.
Just one street has documented carrier delivery: Highway 441 South. This major north-south corridor through northeast Georgia provides the limited street delivery infrastructure, while the bulk of mail service happens through PO Boxes at the post office.
