Address numbers on house
I’ve noticed that in Moultrie Creek, the developer has gone back to using metallic decal stickers in some of the windows of the new homes to denote the home’s address. Is this a cost-saving measure, or is there some other reason I’m unaware of?

I think the OP is referring to the house numbers installed by the builder, not the custom signs installed by the homeowner. My house number is attached to the concrete wall above the garage door.

Mine is nailed to the facia above the garage door. Could a cost saving or maybe they could not get enough to be consistent in a neighborhood, so they just did that...

Yep!!!! Much cheaper for stickers than the letters that go above your garage door. I swear every year the builder is getting cheaper and cheaper on what they provide. If you look at the pictures of homes online unless it's a custom home most bathrooms don't have a shower doors, and some don't even have curtain rods. They don't even put screens on the lanai's anymore.

House (PV)in 2007 Caroline & (PV)2010 Pennacamp both the reflective numbers in the front window. Post sign had names no address.
2012 cottage Fernandina same reflective numbers front window. No post sign. 2009 Designer Duval same reflective number front window. We hated the tacky numbers in front windows asking number of residents, and sales staff if we could remove them and put numbers on garage face of houses. No don’t remove, but no reason given. Finally in 2014 at LSL market night Fire and Sumter sheriff department had a booth. Asked why numbers shouldn’t be removed. Answer: they are reflective so we can find houses easier in the dark. Although there isn’t a rule not to remove….Please leave them up, it easier for us to find you. So new build in 2022 no reflective numbers in front window only numbers over garage. They are metal, not reflective. So what changed. Why go back to reflective numbers. My guess is the Fire/Leo department will have the correct answer.

It is that way because of Public Safety. The reflective numbers on the front window are there to save your life... VPSD and local LEO use these to find you in the dark..

Then, I guess they don’t care about finding anyone in my neighborhood. I’ve never seen these reflective numbers anywhere. Mine are on my house by the garage door and I don’t have one hanging on my lamp post by choice ( wind has blown it off too many times)

You won’t find any of the decal stickers on the homes in Richmond, or many other of the villages built between 2020-2023 - Moultire Creek is mostly decal stickers, but a few patio villas have the numbers above the garage.

We're North of 44 and every village around us has stickers. My wife hated them, so we removed them and replaced them with screw in black aluminum numbers we bought as ACE. We put them vertically on the column at the entrance to the house. Very easily seen from the street.
