You generally have a major east-west street and north-south street near the center of a city. As you go north from the east-west street, the house numbers increase from 1 or some small number. As you go south, they increase in a likewise manner. Same thing as you go east or west from the north-south street where that numbering starts.

Bonus information: House numbers on one side of the street will be even numbers, and on the other side...odd numbers!
up north sw streets are even numbered
ne are odd. Many years chasing addresses
