Beverly Hills Post Office (BHPO) is the name given to a section of Los Angeles, California, that lies within the 90210 ZIP code, which is assigned to the Beverly Hills Post Office. Mailing addresses with the ZIP code 90210 are written as "Beverly Hills, CA 90210", though the properties themselves lie outside of Beverly Hills city limits and are in fact part of the City of Los Angeles. As citizens of Los Angeles, BHPO residents receive Los Angeles city services and vote in Los Angeles elections.

[edit] Education

Public education is provided by the Los Angeles Unified School District [1], as opposed to the Beverly Hills Unified School District, which serves students within Beverly Hills city limits.

The western part of Beverly Hills Post Office is zoned to Warner Avenue Elementary School, while the eastern portion is zoned to West Hollywood Elementary School.

All residents are zoned to Emerson Middle School and University High School.

[edit] Trivia

The 90210 ZIP code, which has long been associated with the city of Beverly Hills, especially as a result of the popular television series Beverly Hills 90210 (1990-2000), actually lies predominantly outside of it. The 90210 ZIP code covers the northern part of Beverly Hills, which includes the city's most expensive neighborhoods.

George Clooney during a talk show on the Italian television ("Che Tempo che fa", on April 12th, 2008) alleged that in Beverly Hills there is no post office. (*)
