What This ZIP Code Covers

This isn't a geographic community with boundaries. It's a single post office facility that maintains PO Boxes for residents and businesses across eastern El Paso. The surrounding neighborhoods like Cielo Vista North, Cielo Vista East, and Cielo Vista South receive their street mail through the 79910 ZIP code.

Why PO Boxes Matter Here

The facility exists because many border residents and businesses prefer PO Boxes for practical reasons. Cross-border commerce, package security, and mail forwarding needs drive demand that goes beyond what typical residential delivery provides. Some customers live in Ciudad Juárez and maintain U.S. mailing addresses here. Others run businesses that require a stable postal address independent of their physical location.

Border Context

This pattern is common along the Texas-Mexico border, where postal infrastructure serves binational populations. El Paso County has one of the highest concentrations of PO Box facilities in Texas. The nearby neighborhoods are predominantly Hispanic, with Spanish-speaking populations that often have family and business connections on both sides of the border. The post office adapts to this reality by maintaining dedicated PO Box facilities like 88573 alongside standard carrier delivery ZIPs.
