Mail Service in Rural Burleson County

Despite the PO Box designation, the area isn't completely cut off from street delivery. A single rural carrier route serves Prairie Street, the community's one named road. This makes Chriesman a mixed-service location where most mail goes to boxes at the post office, but at least one address gets direct delivery. The setup is typical for very small Texas towns where a central post office serves both local residents and people living on nearby farms and ranches.
