ZIP code 88585 serves as a PO Box facility within El Paso, positioned in the city's eastern Cielo Vista area. The ZIP sits near the international border, though it doesn't contain any street delivery routes of its own. Instead, customers with mailing addresses in 88585 must use PO Boxes at the post office, while residential and business street addresses in this part of El Paso receive delivery through the neighboring 79910 ZIP code.
This arrangement is typical for border cities where mail infrastructure developed to serve both local residents and cross-border users. The Cielo Vista area sits roughly 5 miles from the Zaragoza-Ysleta Port of Entry, one of El Paso's major border crossings with Ciudad Juárez. The nearby neighborhoods—Cielo Vista North, Cielo Vista East, and Cielo Vista South—are predominantly Hispanic communities that reflect the binational character of the region.
Without population or household data specific to this ZIP, it's difficult to determine exactly how many people maintain boxes here versus receiving delivery at street addresses. What's clear is that 88585 functions purely as a postal facility designation rather than a residential community identifier. Anyone visiting this post office would likely be coming from surrounding areas that get standard carrier delivery through other ZIP codes.
The absence of street delivery routes, combined with the border location, suggests this facility may serve specific postal needs that don't align with residential patterns. Some border-area PO Box facilities handle mail for people who maintain addresses on both sides of the international boundary, though without adoption rate data or box counts, that remains speculation for this particular ZIP.
No street delivery records exist for this ZIP—it functions exclusively as a PO Box facility without carrier routes.
ZIP Code 88585 is designated for PO Box delivery only; business establishment and employment data are not available.
