Mina sits in the high desert of western Nevada's Mineral County, a remote community of 138 residents spread across 150 square miles. With a median age of 64, this isn't a typical small town. It's a retirement community in one of Nevada's most isolated regions.
This is a PO Box Only Zone. There's no street delivery across the entire 150 square mile territory. The Mina post office maintains 91 PO Boxes for 84 occupied homes, serving both town residents and outlying areas via one rural route and one highway contract route. Everyone drives to the post office for mail, packages, and prescriptions.
Street names tell stories of military history. Bataan Street, McArthur Street, and Doolittle Street sit alongside numbered streets (3rd through 12th) and letter streets (A, B, C). The town's grid layout suggests an earlier era when Mina was a more substantial community.
Housing stock is old and sparse. Of 133 total housing units, 49 stand vacant. Many homes were built before 1939. Mobile homes account for a substantial portion of occupied residences. Median home values of $106,900 make this one of Nevada's most affordable places to own property.
Mina's economy is minimal. Just 4 business establishments employ 5 people. Transportation and warehousing accounts for a significant share of work (28 workers in ACS data), likely related to the town's position on US Route 95. With no grocery stores or services in the ZIP+4 data, residents travel to Hawthorne (30 miles north) or Tonopah (60 miles south) for supplies.
All mail must be addressed to a PO Box:
