Urban Postal Structure

The classification as a PO Box ZIP doesn't mean downtown Evansville lacks street delivery. It means this particular postal code is dedicated to business mail and PO Box service, while surrounding ZIPs handle residential carrier routes. The single street route on Sycamore Street includes unit-based delivery, serving multi-tenant commercial buildings typical of a city center. This setup is common in urban areas where different postal zones handle different service types within the same geographic footprint.

Street Name Patterns

Single Street Service

Just one street appears in postal records: Sycamore Street with unit-based delivery for commercial buildings. The limited street presence confirms this ZIP's role as a specialized business and PO Box facility rather than a full-service carrier zone.
