Tontitown, Arkansas sits within the fast-growing Fayetteville-Springdale metropolitan area in Washington County. This PO Box ZIP doesn't cover geographic territory on its own. Instead, it exists as a point location contained entirely within ZIP 72762. The Tontitown post office handles 272 PO Boxes for what Census data shows as zero residential population, but that's misleading. The actual community receives street delivery through the enclosing ZIP code.
The postal reality here is unusual. USPS classifies 72770 as a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative mail delivery option through this specific ZIP. Yet the ZIP+4 data shows 2 distinct city carrier routes serving 61 address records on N Barrington Road. These routes likely provide service through ZIP 72762 rather than 72770 itself.
