Every other place I have lived had a mail box and had delivery to the house. That also allowed me to get to know my delivery person.


I don't know WHAT the idea was behind it, but the air conditioned and locked boxes protect our mail and keep our medicines from degrading in the heat. I think that is a very nice feature and prefer it over being chummy with the mail person.
