They cannot know it, strictly speaking, because it is false. The USPS is legally required to deliver to every address. They certainly don’t depends on Google maps for compliance, or use it as a source of truth.
- CyLith 2y agoI don’t think this is true. I live in the middle of nowhere, but there are homes an hour out further in nowhereness with addresses that I cannot imagine could ever receive mail. Those people all have PO boxes in town.

- jjav 2y ago> The USPS is legally required to deliver to every address. What if there is no address? The house where I grew up was very rural, it had no address and USPS definitely did not deliver anything there. The only address we had until my 20s was my father's work office, that's where we received all mail.
- yencabulator 2y agoYou can file a form with your local county/postmaster/something (probably varies by state) to request an address to be assigned. (That doesn't mean you'll be able to receive mail at that address.)
