For a parallel road structure, the assignment of address numbers should maintain a con- sistent pattern, such that if a street is numbered East–West, then adjacent, parallel streets should follow the same numbering pattern. Like address number assignment along a road, authorities also assign numbers to cul-de-sacs as even or odd on either side (see Figure 4). Dead-end roads should be addressed starting at their connecting road (see Figure 5). When assigning address numbers to a crescent, authorities should maintain the same numbering sequence for roads, even if this sequence eventually flips the North–South or East–West num- bering patterns, as shown in Figure 6. 3.2 Rural Addressing For rural areas which are not included in the DLS system, mapping editors should locate these address points at the property accesses (e.g., driveways, lanes, field entrances), as illustrated in Figure 7. Doing so helps emergency responders quickly locate incidents according to their address location. Community Civic Addressing Guide to Best Practices v4.0 5
