Hm, I’m not sure (I’m not familiar with the group of addr:* keys). At least
they are places in the sense that they have a defined location.

In Japan and in Korea, I’m not sure how this is handeled.

In Ivory Coast, you have addresses like “in front of the XYZ crossroad” or
“from XYZ crossroad 50 m towards the big fueling station”. Rather a sort of
instructions for getting somewhere than an address in the european sense.
Obviously “from XYZ crossroad 50 m towards the big fueling station” will be
applied to various houses (usually, when you have arrived, you make a phone
call to the person that you want to meet, and the person comes to the road
to search you and help you with the last part of the way – I can guarantee
you that this is very time-consuming ;-)

Best regards
