Woodruff is a small rural community in Navajo County, Arizona, covering 56.7 square miles of high country northeast of the White Mountains. With just 64 residents and 33 households in the Census-defined area, this community operates a post office that serves a wider rural region.
The Woodruff post office maintains 67 PO Boxes for the 33 local households, a 2.03x adoption rate that shows the post office serves people from surrounding areas beyond the Census boundary. This pattern is typical of rural Arizona communities where residents from dispersed ranches and homesteads travel to a central post office for mail service.
Mail delivery in Woodruff uses a mixed pattern with both city carrier routes and rural routes, serving streets like W 1st St, River Rd, County Rd, and Jacamar Ln. This isn't a PO Box Only Zone, meaning street delivery is available for some addresses. The facility operates as a Community Post Office, a USPS designation for smaller rural offices.
Woodruff's connection to nearby Snowflake is visible in the postal system. SNOWFLAKE is recognized as a valid mailing alias for this ZIP code, meaning mail addressed to either "Woodruff, AZ 85942" or "Snowflake, AZ 85942" will be delivered here. The median age of 40 years and predominantly owner-occupied housing (all 33 occupied homes are owner-occupied, with zero rentals) suggests an established rural community.
