Edgerton sits along Highway 387 in Wyoming's Natrona County, about 40 miles north of Casper. It's a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative mail delivery for the 154 residents who live here. Everyone picks up mail at the post office.
With 85 PO Boxes serving 77 households, the adoption rate of 1.10 shows the post office handles a bit more than just local demand. Some boxes likely serve ranchers and workers from the surrounding 44 square miles. Rural carrier routes cover the area outside town, but a PO Box remains the only option for most.
