Dora is a small, unincorporated community located in Jefferson County, in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. An unincorporated community is a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government like a city or a town does. Instead, it's usually governed by the larger county it's a part of.

A Look at Dora's Past

Dora had its own post office for many years. It opened in 1883, which was a long time ago! Having a post office was very important for communities back then. It was how people sent letters, received news, and connected with others far away. The post office in Dora served the community for a long time, finally closing its doors in 1974.
