Some of the guidance for DBsooner/Places/Post Office2 may have specific localized adjustments for your local area. Be sure to familiarize yourself with these differences through the Local vs national guidance page. |
The Post Office category is used for places the USPS defines as Post Offices.
- Category
- Post Office
- Only if the place is listed by the USPS as "Post Office", "Village Post Office", or "Contract Postal Unit". If it is not in the list, please consult regional or USA Places guidance for the correct category.
- Waze Mobile App search for "post office" will find Waze places only if they have the Post Office category or have a Google link to a Post Office. Thus, it is important we limit the amount of places we add the Post Office category to.
