Ditto in Finland, although we base the numbers on the distance to the start of the road, so number 123 would be 1230 metres from the start of the road. Makes it

Ditto in Finland, although we base the numbers on the distance to the start of the road, so number 123 would be 1230 metres from the start of the road. Makes it quite easy to find the way, actually.
- alkonaut 8y agoInteresting. How does that work for a place with more than 1 road? Say 20 houses in a village right at the intersection between 2 roads (say houses randomly placed in a circle within 1km from the intersection)?
- ahje 8y agoI'm sure there are other variants as well, but buildings on private roads with no name usually get an address based on where they intersect with the closest public road. If the road is public, it should have at least a number. Almost all public roads have names, and many have two (as some parts of the country are bi-lingual -- it makes address validation quite interesting).
