Flensburg sits in Morrison County, Minnesota, about 100 miles northwest of Minneapolis. This small community of 150 people has a PO Box Only Zone designation, meaning there's no alternative mail delivery. Despite this, two rural carrier routes serve addresses in the area.

Household income runs high at $104,464, well above the national median. Nearly a quarter of workers (24.7%) work from home.

Street names follow the classic Minnesota small-town pattern: tree names like Pine, Elm, Ash, and Maple alongside a numbered grid with 1st Street and 2nd Street.
Flensburg isn't a vacation destination or tourist stop. It's a working community where young families and transportation workers have settled. The post office, with its 52 boxes, functions as the primary mail access point for residents and the surrounding rural area.
