One could but then the USPS is under no obligation to put mail into it.
The USPS is the group that handles giving out the numbers and such at least that is what I've learned about the new subdevelopments.
Also, I'd suggest talking it over with the landlord before you go stirring up the local municipalities. You may inadvertantly screw up extra income for the family and also put yourself out on the street.
I kept a PO box for many years when living with my parents. They didn't understand why and not that I kept lots of things from my parents but I did like the privacy of my own mailbox. I never got anything questionable or even remotely sexual in nature, I just didn't like the questions of "who's that" "why do you have that bill" etc.
