Ringle has its own post office and a Fire department, and its ZIP code is 54471.
History of Ringle
The community of Ringle got its name from John Ringle. He owned land in this area a long time ago. A post office was opened in Ringle in 1891. This means it has been serving the community for over 130 years!
