The Old Muddy Post Office in Muddy, Illinois, holds a unique place in American postal history, once noted for being one of the smallest post offices in the United States. While some sources claim it was the second smallest after the one in Ochopee, Florida, its diminutive size is largely attributed to the era in which many rural post offices were constructed as simple, modest structures. Despite its small stature, this historic building has become a significant landmark within the tiny incorporated town of Muddy, contributing to its local charm and providing a glimpse into the past of rural mail service.
