Postal service was first established in the Sioux County community of Maurice on August 25, 1882, when a post office was established in the home of resident Alanson Sherman. After a number of location changes, the Maurice Post Office moved to its present building in July 1943. The brick structure was remodeled in the late 1970s when new exterior paneling was installed and the large plate glass windows were replaced with smaller, energy-saving window panes. Maurice is home to 254 residents.
