EDDM: USPS House Count Off?

2 replies
Doing my first EDDM mailing and in using their online tool to select neighborhoods, it seems like their estimates are off. It feels like their estimates may be doubled.

One neighborhood I've selected is being counted as almost 500 residences, but I swear it can't be more than 200-250.

Am I way off base here?

    A couple of things.

    If you are only going to residences make sure you chose the option for residences only and not residences/businesses.

    Is there an apartment complex in the area? That could be included. Check the map for where the route is located. When that route is highlighted look around to see if the carrier drives to a different area. They may have a split route that could include apartments.

    Also, verify that you are not sending to PO boxes in the options.

    Just some ideas for you.
