A Tiny Community with Regional Reach

Albany, Oklahoma sits in rural Bryan County near the Red River and the Texas border. With just 25 residents and 14 households, it's one of the smallest communities in the state with its own post office. The Albany post office maintains 48 PO Boxes, more than three times the number of local households. That ratio tells the story of a crossroads community where the post office serves ranchers, farmers, and scattered rural residents from surrounding areas who have no other mail access.

PO Box Only Zone

This is a PO Box Only Zone. There's no street delivery available anywhere in the area, and the post office on N Wade Street is the only option for receiving mail. One rural carrier route handles delivery beyond the immediate vicinity, but the post office itself functions as the primary pickup point. General delivery service is also available for those without a permanent box.

Community Profile

The demographics paint a picture of a tight-knit farming community. Median age is 41.5 years. All 14 homes are owner-occupied, with no rentals and no vacant properties. The population is small enough that Census economic data isn't available at this level, but the lack of any business establishments in the ZIP code itself confirms this is a residential crossroads rather than a commercial center.

Postal Geography

Albany's ZIP 74721 exists as a point within the larger 74726 ZIP code territory (Durant area). The post office has operated here since before 2004, serving as a local anchor for this corner of Bryan County. For anyone mailing to Albany, a PO Box address is required since street delivery doesn't exist.
