Some small towns and citys have 24 post office lobbys but it is hit or miss...stayed in one last week in old 1930s era grand post office with steam heat...toasty!
I think that could count as Tresspassing on Federal Property, which happens to be a felony. I'll stick to simple Tresspass which is a misdemeanor or even an infraction in some places. I don't fuck around a Fed property.
I stayed in one in Drumheller, Alberta, Canada. It was kinda awkward but did the job of keeping us warm. Only had a person come in once, then around 5:30am two women employees came in. Near opening time they told us we had to leave but they were pretty nice about it. I know it's maybe not the best place to sleep if you're trying to avoid the cops, but it worked out for us. in Canada. No experience in the States but I can imagine it'd be more difficult...
Yeah, it might be federal property, but the question is, would a federal attorney really want to waste their time prosecuting some bums caught sleeping in a PO? I wouldn't really be all that worried.
My larger concern would be people coming in in the middle of the night, it sounds worth a try though.
I have a buddy who slept in a bank ATM lobby and made it to 6am without anybody coming in.
