Thank you for listening!
I would probably only help with Durham, so two tasks would be great.
I would think something like 500 addresses would be a reasonable task
size. Obviously in areas without preexisting buildings, this would go
rather quickly, but matching addresses to buildings (whether by putting
on/in the whole polygon or near an entrance) would be a completable
task.
