I assume that rural delivery still goes house-to-house.

Rural delivery is done to mail boxes along the roads, which means the
people have to travel from their house to said road to get their mail.
We lived on a farm for part of the time I was growing up and for us that
was 3/4 of a mile, and that was not uncommon in the area, for some it
was even further. Quite different from walking a block, maybe, to a
community box.
