  • In urban areas, why is the address usually established toward the end of certain processes?"
    When areas develop, whether they are residential or commercial, there are factors taken into account such as zoning, lot sizes, building codes, and other legal regulations. All of these are reviewed by the necessary local departments to ensure the correct standards are met. Once this is all in place, an area can be certified as ready to receive a number scheme. If an of the aforementioned standards are not met and the area must undergo redesign in order to meet standards, the numbers would need to be modified accordingly. It is for this reason that numbers are withheld until all parties can be sure of the final product of how an area will take shape. This is also to aid in preventing end users of addresses from having to take much effort to update an address throughout multiple records across several different accounts and policies in the event a numerical address needs to be changed.
