The split arrangement is common in Northern New Mexico. One ZIP handles all the PO Boxes while its sibling manages street delivery. The 874 boxes serve both local residents who prefer box service and people from surrounding areas without carrier delivery options. Since there are no occupied housing units recorded in this ZIP's boundaries, the boxes primarily serve customers from neighboring areas.
Española sits in a region with strong Spanish and Native American heritage. The nearby neighborhoods reflect this character: Las Dos, La Tierra, and Las Campanas are 18-20 miles south toward Santa Fe. These communities, along with areas like Tano Bonito and San Isidro De Tesuque, help explain why a standalone PO Box facility exists here. The post office serves as a mail hub for a dispersed population.
The facility's classification as a city delivery post office seems at odds with the PO Box-only service, but this designation relates to USPS operational categories rather than actual delivery methods. What matters for customers is straightforward: if you need a physical address in this ZIP, you'll be using a PO Box. Street addresses fall under 87532's jurisdiction.
This ZIP has no street delivery routes. All mail service operates through PO Boxes at the Española post office.
