If that weren't true, you'd have entire cities in the same postcode. There has to be a boundary somewhere.

- nly 2y agoOdd numbered homes on one side of the street and evens on the other often have different postcodes
- willvarfar 2y agoPostcodes are about sorting mail to match the delivery rounds.
- ooklala 2y agoMany buildings also have their own postcode! (The second half of the postcode represents the 'delivery point' which is basically limited by the amount of post that the postman/woman can physically carry...)
- lnxg33k1 2y agoWell, in Italy postcodes define city areas, and cities, for example for my city the main postcode is 80100, but my area is 80142, and it contains few buildings, so it's different from UK, UK was the first time I saw such specific postcodes, and I've lived also in Germany and Netherlands
