Community Overview

Arnold is a small rural community in Marquette County, Michigan, in the Upper Peninsula. Despite being classified as a PO Box ZIP, this location doesn't maintain any PO Boxes. Instead, the 14 homes and 3 businesses receive mail through rural carrier delivery along county roads.

Postal Services

The community post office serves a 13 square mile territory. All mail is delivered via two rural carrier routes that follow County Road 557 (the primary route with 11 delivery points), County Road 426, and County Roads SZ and SY. Cornell is an alternate name for this area, both accepted for mailing addresses.

Classification vs. Reality

This ZIP's classification as PO Box only dates to before October 2004, but actual delivery operations have always been rural carrier based. It's a working example of how USPS classification codes don't always match current delivery methods. The classification stuck even though the area has street delivery, not PO Box service.

Mailing Information

Mail can be addressed to either Arnold, MI 49819 or Cornell, MI 49819. Use the actual street address (county road number and house number) for delivery.
