You would make that trade ? If I was the habs I ' d be all over that . <| sep |> I ' m not a fan of that reasoning . Community mailboxes were forced on people whether they wanted them or not and now it ' s , well 23 ' s have community mailboxes so screw the rest of them . Like I said in my other comment I use to get delivery to the door , but now I have a community box . It ' s not much of an issue for me because it ' s not that much of a difference it ' s so close to my house anyway . For someone like my father though . He lives in a pretty maze like subdivision with lots of dead ends and the location of his box was really poorly thought out . I have one of the smaller community boxes , but he has one of the super ones that does the whole subdivision . As the crow flies it ' s not that far from him . If you just cut through two people ' s yards it ' s like a 15 minute walk , but the reality is it ' s a 45 minute walk all the way around by road to get to it . He had a minor heart attack last year and so I went to visit him about every other day and stopped to pick up his mail for him , even by car it was quite a drive around . I don ' t understand why someone would design a subdivision like that . It feels like if there was ever a fire the firetrucks would have to stop at every other house to get directions just to get to the next street over .
