Of course you can remove these house numbers if you like. I would suggest that if you do you replace them with house numbers that can be easily and quickly seen from the curb.
In my former life I was a career firefighter and Medic. Literally drove to thousands of medical calls. We depended on seeing house numbers somewhere on the home or on a mailbox.
You cannot depend on GPS. Even with the latest downloads there are MANY streets in The Villages that do not even show up yet off of Moyer Loop and of course in Fenney and DeSoto. I deal with this daily.
As to house numbers, the Cul-De-Sacs can be tricky as the odd and even numbers meet somewhere at the end of them.
As we get older the chances of needing an Ambulance someday increases....I want to make it as easy as possible for them to find me quickly.
I do not want my epitaph to read....."Here lies old Frank, his death was quite wrong. They could not find his house number, it took way too long"
Frank
