I'm almost positive you're talking about Maple Town
. Searching for "Maple Town Post Office" in Google Images brings up a toy matching your description.

I'm pretty sure this is an anime dubbed in English that I'm looking for. I remember it from when I was very young, so the mid-eighties. The premise is a town in the countryside full of animal families, most (if not all) consisting of parents, a son, and a daughter. The focus is on the rabbit family, I think. The girl bunny had a pink dress and a bow on one ear.
It had a toy house line to go with it that I saw even years later in catalogs. I have the Post Office building, with (plastic) stained-glass carrot window over the front door, that I got from a yard sale. You could purchase the families as sets, but I can't remember any of the other animals outside of raccoons.
I know it's very little to go on, but it has really been bugging me.
