Probably No Way
 

The commonly accepted story is that the Developer attempted to get a new post office built within The Villages several years ago, even offering to build the new facility and sell it to USPS for one dollar. Even with the Developer's strong ties and campaign contributions to the political administration in power at the time, still no approval occurred. Presumably, USPS was concerned over opening a new, larger facility in TV which would have wildly fluctuating staffing requirements during the year, due to the fluctuation of seasonal residents. That sort of fluctuation can more easily be accommodated by the network of smaller post offices in surrounding communities.

Now that USPS is in dire financial straits, there's probably no chance of a new post office anywhere within The Villages.

UPS Store
 

There is a UPS Store in the Pinellas Plaza on 466A near Winn Dixie. I have taken my letters there to be mailed and also bought stamps from them. I think they're open every day except Sunday.

Not having money hasn't stopped any govenmnet entity before.

This store is very customer friendly and they do everything they can to accommodate. We also use the Wildwood PO--very helpful, friendly staff there as well.

Looks like Post Office looking to put stations in stores like Staples etc, and Super Markets. Cuts out rent, and utilities, while still being convenient. They need to save money somehow, like eliminating Saturday delivery.

I'm not getting into the argument of why the post office is not viable but, lets face reality, my mail comes addressed to THE VILLAGES. We have over 100,000 residents and do not have a post office? Our home in Ohio has 17,000 residents and we have a post office (not that it is justified). Might the underlying reason be political?

It could be because The Villages is not a municipality, it is a Community Development District (CDD).

Why is another post office needed?

I don't know! Down by 466A, we have two close choices, virtually at either end. (Okay, so one's on 301). If anyone would benefit from another PO, seems like it would be up around 466.

For a PO in one of the town squares, you would have to park & walk further with packages than you do at any of the existing POs.
