Instead, it sits within the boundaries of ZIP 79526 (Snyder), which handles street delivery for the surrounding area. One rural carrier route is associated with this ZIP, delivering to addresses along the highway corridor. The only address record on file is for the Postmaster location on S State Highway 208.
Dunn's postal presence dates back before 2004 when USPS began tracking ZIP introduction dates. The "N" facility code indicates this isn't a standard post office but a non-delivery facility.
