How do you address a letter to a mayor?

Answer 1

According to Emily Post, when addressing a letter to a mayor of a city, the proper form is: The Honorable [mayor's full name]; Mayor of City, Address, State. So, in Boston, the letter would be addressed to The Honorable Martin J. Walsh, Mayor of the City of Boston, One City Hall Plaza, Boston MA 02201.

The salutation would be Dear Mayor [last name]-- So in our example, Dear Mayor Walsh. When meeting the mayor in person, he (or she) would be addressed by their title: Good afternoon, Mayor Walsh. Some people would use Mr. or Madam (if it's a female mayor) instead: Good afternoon, Mr. Mayor.
