I can’t imagine what standard that might be when some of the houses are built so close together you couldn’t put up a tent in between them, but their numbers are not only not consecutive but sometimes far apart. The US post seems to have missed the boat here:
“Regardless of method, the key to any housing number system is simplicity and uniformity. That way, visitors and new citizens can easily grasp the city's layout. Additionally, services like mail delivery or food delivery become vastly more efficient when they can plan out their routes.”
