- JRJasmine Pettaway Kemp REALTORFeb 11, 20225.0Talk about a breath of fresh air! This is hands-down the best post office in the city. The workers here are friendly and don’t seem as overwhelmed as other locations, the stamp collection is always full of fun designs to look over and the lines are usually short and work through quickly. If I am even remotely close by and need to go to a post office this is always the location that I am choosing!
