Lol yup. It is 5 digits, where the first 3 are the nearest cross street, and last 2 digits are house number.
So as an example, 21601 2nd ave, would be right at the intersection of 2nd ave and 216th street, while 21689 2nd ave would be closer to 2nd ave and 217th street. Super easy to navigate and find addresses when everything is a grid.
Wait, for real?
Honestly, gives me an excuse to make it more evil, how many digits?
If you are looking for excuses to make it more evil make it accept Hawaiian style addresses with hyphens, like this one for a Walmart:
75-1015 Henry St, Kailua Kona, HI 96740
Oh my god
Loads of people have letters in their house “number” part of the address, as well as a much smaller number of addresses including a ½.
