The Pincher Creek Post Office serves the postal needs of approximately 3,700 residents and business.

Pincher Creek was incorporated as a town in 1906. The Town of Pincher Creek is located in southwestern Alberta at the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains. It was established in 1878 as a North-West Mounted Police post and farm on Pincher's Creek. The creek received its name after a pair of pincers (a tool used to trim horses' hooves) was found along its banks.
