[Talk-us] Addresses with no house number

[Paul Johnson]

A PO Box doesn't work for navigation purposes, which is what I thought we
were focusing on.  Oddly enough, the school does have a mailbox on Third
near Pine.  House numbers don't appear to be a thing in Council Hill, I
didn't see anything there (though I was pushing a deadline and running
behind, hence only focusing on Midway Schools, so I might have missed it;
the schools were definitely was unnumbered).
