Maybe not, but then again...

In rural areas of Norway, a normal way to define house numbers is to have
one number for every 10 meters, alternating between the left and right side.
So Vestsidevegen 1542 is 15420 meters from some starting point. This does
not mean that number 1543, which would be across the road, necessarily
exists, however.
