A Look Back: Villa's History

Villa was never officially planned out on a map, which is called being "platted." This means there wasn't a formal design for its streets or property lots when it started.

Even without a formal plan, Villa had a post office. This post office opened in 1887. Having a post office was a big deal back then! It meant people could send and receive letters and packages, connecting them to the rest of the world. The post office in Villa stayed open for several years, until 1903.
