The price elasticity of demand for the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) can vary depending on the specific service and market conditions. Generally, postal services exhibit inelastic demand, meaning that changes in price lead to smaller proportional changes in the quantity demanded, as postal services are often considered necessities. However, competition from private carriers and digital communication can influence elasticity, particularly for certain services like package delivery. Overall, while many USPS services may be inelastic, specific segments may show more sensitivity to price changes.
