[ELI5] Why do some neighborhoods have USPS delivery to the door and others only to the driveway?

219 views

I have seen some high-end neighborhoods with delivery to the mailbox at the entrance and middle-class neighborhoods with delivery to the door. So I suspect it isn’t some local tax thing either like garbage pickup.

Edit: Meant paper mail delivery to clarify!

Where I live the only people allowed to have mailboxes by their door are certain “old” neighborhoods, and they are slowly doing away with them going to only boxes on the road, or a community box, this saves on labor costs.
