ZIP code 88511 serves the El Paso area as a PO Box facility near the Texas-Mexico border. The post office sits in one of the nation's largest binational metropolitan regions, where El Paso blends with Ciudad Juárez across the Rio Grande. This creates unique postal service demands that standard street delivery doesn't address.
The facility operates as a dedicated PO Box location without street carrier routes. This isn't because El Paso lacks street delivery. The surrounding area has comprehensive carrier service through neighboring ZIP codes like 79910, which encompasses the same geographic coordinates. Instead, 88511 exists to meet specific customer needs that require PO Box addresses separate from residential delivery.
Nearly all nearby neighborhoods show strong Hispanic cultural identity. Cielo Vista North, Cielo Vista East, and Cielo Vista South sit within a mile of the facility's coordinates. These communities reflect El Paso's position as a majority-Hispanic city where cross-border family ties and business relationships shape daily life. Many customers maintain PO Boxes for receiving mail from Mexico or for business operations that span both countries.
The designation as a PO Box-only ZIP doesn't mean customers lack alternatives. Street delivery exists throughout El Paso through other ZIP codes. Instead, this facility serves people who choose PO Box service for privacy, security, or business reasons. In border communities, that often includes receiving packages from Mexican addresses, maintaining consistent mailing addresses despite residential moves, or separating business from home mail.
This ZIP code contains no street delivery records. All mail service is provided through PO Boxes at the postal facility.
ZIP Code 88511 is designated for PO Box delivery only; business establishment and employment data are not available.
