Postal Letter

Where (and more importantly what) is Hell?

I was doing research on zip codes, and cross checking with yahoo maps. I ran into Hell, Michigan, over by Gregory and Pinckey. It doesn't appear to have a USPS zip code. Is this unincorporated territory? A part of some other town (like Pinckey)? A neighborhood? Or what? I plugged in an address into Google Maps, and got Pinckey. Just to confuse, the hand is often use for an ad hoc map of lower Michigan with the fingers pointing up. But Pinckey isn't anywhere near the fingers. It's firmly in the palm. If Michigan had a place called "tongue", i'm sure it would be in a town or at least county called "cheek", geographically speaking. Very funny guys. But i really want to know if there is any official standing for the place. Does it have a mayor? A town hall? A coke machine? What? Thanks Chris. I've no idea why i didn't find the Wiki page in my research.
