Facility Overview

ZIP code 90052 serves as an administrative facility ZIP for the United States Postal Service in downtown Los Angeles. This isn't a residential community. It's a USPS operations hub.

How Mail Works Here

Mail delivery here operates through a building-based system with room numbers rather than traditional addresses. The ZIP+4 records show 147 delivery points, nearly all at S Central Ave, using room (RM) designators. The data lists 84 named departments, including District Manager, Plant Manager, Finance, Human Resources, Labor Relations, and the Postmaster's office. This reflects the administrative structure of a major USPS facility serving the Los Angeles region.

An Institutional ZIP Code

With zero households and zero PO Boxes, 90052 functions purely as an institutional ZIP. The facility handles internal USPS mail routing for employees and departments. Census data shows 13 people in noninstitutionalized group quarters, likely representing postal workers counted at the facility during the 2020 Census. The median age of 32.3 years aligns with a working-age employee population.

Mailing Information

This ZIP is classified as PO Box only in USPS systems, but that classification doesn't match current reality. Street delivery exists via one city carrier route serving the administrative building. The classification likely dates to when this facility was first assigned its own ZIP code before tracking began in 2004. Mail addressed to 90052 should include the specific department name and room number at the S Central Ave address.
