huh? border of cities? they would fall into the diff postal code section. even the streets that cross towns dont have same numbers on them. Yong street goes from Toronto to God knows how far north, and numbers just keep increasing along with postal codes...........house numbers do not start all over every time a street crosses town/city limit

Yuli is right, for once [img]tongue.gif[/img] . It's impossible to have two locations with the same address and postal code, unless it's the same building, in which case there will be a suite number to differentiate. One side of a street will have even numbers and the other will be odd. Blah blah blah.
Just be thankful we are not like some other countries when assigning house numbers. We go sequentially which is pretty universal. But some countries assign numbers in the order buildings are built. So address 2134 could be next to 2146 and a block away is 2138. Now you know why Nav systems were invented!

Might I add it happened awhile ago when they were disputing over town lines.

You choose to believe what you want. I know that this happened and that it is possible, maybe not TO THIS DAY but a little while back it was possible.
To each their own.
