Boyers is an unincorporated village in Marion Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a small population with a few businesses located in the center of the town.

The secondary state highway runs through the center of Boyers.

Boyers was a large mining community at the turn of the 20th century, serviced by a branch of the Bessemer and Lake Erie Railroad known as the Hilliards branch. The rails were removed in the early 2000s.

The abandoned mines have provided opportunities for underground storage facilities since 1954. The Iron Mountain Corporation merged with the longtime owner of the facility in 1998 and operates a large storage facility located in a former limestone mine close to Boyers, where the Corbis photographic collection is stored. The United States Office of Personnel Management (OPM) maintains a highly secure facility in an abandoned mine in Boyers, PA. This contains all the documents from security clearance proceedings. The United States Patent and Trademark Office stores original records in an underground storage facility in Boyers.

The Post Office is a older-brick style facility that has a ramp for disabled customers. The facility however, has been renovated to keep up with modern times

A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.

If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
