ZIP code 40201 in Louisville, Kentucky, is a PO Box-only facility serving the Central Louisville and Old Louisville neighborhoods. The post office maintains 404 PO Boxes alongside 343 business delivery points, primarily serving a downtown business district rather than residential customers. Despite having zero recorded residential population, the facility processes mail through 274 ZIP+4 records covering limited street delivery to S 7th Street and a smart locker location.
The classification as a small town hub doesn't capture 40201's actual function as an urban PO Box facility embedded within Louisville's larger metro area.

The post office operates within the 40203 ZIP code boundary, which provides the surrounding street delivery network for the broader downtown area.
With only S 7th Street and a smart locker as delivery points, this ZIP's street network reflects its specialized function as an urban PO Box facility rather than a traditional residential service area.
