What You Should Do 
This office encourages all citizens to be aware of things that they can do to improve Addressing in Jefferson County:
    • If you are aware of an incorrect address, please contact your local postal delivery and encourage them to report the problem to this office. 
    • If you have been assigned a new address and are not currently using it, please stop using the old address. 
    • Post your number conspicuously. This office recommends at least four (4) inch high reflective numbers be placed on both your mailbox and the house to aid persons in finding your home.
    • Have your personal correspondence changed to the new number. 
    • Check with your Utilities and the Tax Assessor. New addresses issued by this office have been sent to utilities and emergency services in your area but verify that your mailing or account address (as opposed to the site or service address) has also changed for your utility accounts.
