The single street record in the postal database is N Missouri, part of a rural route that covers 15.3 square miles. That works out to one housing unit per 72 acres. Most residents receive mail through PO Boxes because there isn't city carrier service in this area. The median household income sits at $58,140, close to the state average, while the median home value of $230,200 reflects proximity to the Houston metro area without being part of the suburbs.
The postal database shows just one street name, N Missouri, which serves as the main road through this rural community. This minimal street infrastructure is typical of areas where mail delivery centers on PO Boxes rather than door-to-door service.
