Key Facts
  • Rota is a 32.9-square-mile island in the Northern Mariana Islands, 40 miles north of Guam
  • The post office maintains 566 PO Boxes for the entire island population
  • Song Song Village is the only named street location in the postal database
  • Highway-route delivery classification means there are no traditional carrier routes on the island
  • The ZIP code includes 61 business addresses and 20 distinct ZIP+4 zones
  • As a U.S. Commonwealth territory, Rota receives the same postal services as the mainland states

Island-Scale Postal Operations

The post office maintains 566 PO Boxes for an island with minimal reported population statistics. This pattern is typical of Pacific island communities where year-round residents are supplemented by seasonal workers, military personnel on rotations, and property owners who maintain addresses but don't permanently reside on the island. The high box count relative to documented population suggests significant mail activity from businesses, government offices, and part-time residents.

Delivery Infrastructure

Song Song Village is the island's administrative center and the only named street in the postal database, serving as the main delivery point. The highway-dominant delivery classification means that standard city-style carrier routes don't operate here. Instead, the postal facility serves as the central point where residents and businesses collect their mail. For an island community, this centralized system makes sense given the small geographic footprint and the social nature of post office visits in tight-knit communities.

Geography and Postal Access

The island's status as a U.S. Commonwealth territory means residents receive the same postal services as the mainland, but geography shapes how those services work in practice. Without residential delivery infrastructure, the PO Box system isn't a limitation but rather the most practical solution for reliable mail service on a small Pacific island.
