ZIP code 38113 covers a 15.6 square mile industrial zone along the Mississippi River in south Memphis. This isn't a residential neighborhood. Only 11 people live here, but 2,186 workers commute in daily to work at 83 businesses. The street names tell the story: Harbor Avenue, Channel Avenue, Buoy Street, and Jack Carley Causeway. It's port infrastructure.
The post office maintains just 10 PO Boxes for an area with one occupied household. That ratio sounds extreme until you understand the context. Workers, not residents, drive the postal demand. The few boxes serve businesses and the handful of people who live on-site at waterfront properties.
Mail delivery follows an Urban+Rural pattern. One city carrier route and one rural route cover the sprawling industrial zone. Street delivery exists, but most of the area consists of warehouses, distribution centers, and port facilities that receive business mail directly. The PO Box classification dates back decades, from before the industrial expansion.
Memphis sits at a crossroads of American logistics. Its river port connects to New Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico. FedEx runs its global hub here. This particular ZIP serves a slice of that infrastructure where the Mississippi bends through south Memphis. The median age of 45.5 years and near-zero residential population confirm this is a workplace, not a community.
Street names reflect the port and harbor character of this industrial zone along the Mississippi River.
