Bonus, Pennsylvania facts for kids

Bonus is a small, quiet place in Butler County, Pennsylvania. It's known as an unincorporated community, which means it doesn't have its own local government like a town or city. Instead, it's part of the larger county.

History of Bonus

Even though Bonus is a small community, it once had its own post office. This post office opened in 1898, which was a long time ago! It helped people send and receive letters and packages. However, the post office didn't stay open for very long; it closed just a few years later in 1901.

It's a bit of a mystery how Bonus got its name. No one is quite sure why it was called "Bonus," and the reason has been lost over time.
