Mailbox vandalized twice on Jupiter Blvd, Palm Bay. Is this personal or just random?

Hi everyone,

My husband and I moved to Palm Bay almost two years ago. We were renting at first, and then we bought a house on Jupiter Blvd and moved in this past December (2025).

In the last month, our mailbox has been destroyed twice. What’s really bothering me is that ours is the only mailbox on the street that’s been damaged.

I honestly don’t know if this is random vandalism, kids being reckless, or if it’s something personal. We don’t know our neighbors yet and we keep to ourselves, so this feels really unsettling.

Is this kind of thing common here? Has anyone else dealt with this in Palm Bay or specifically on Jupiter Blvd?

Also, what would you recommend we do next. Report it to USPS? The police? Install a camera? Reinforced mailbox?

I’m feeling pretty upset and unsafe about it, and I’d really appreciate any advice or similar experiences. Thank you.
