What is an address?
An address is a piece of information that comes in a pre-defined format with some fixed information. Using an address, you can define the location of any building, such as a house, apartment, or any other building, or you can define the location of a lot to make navigation easier. A postal code helps with mail routing, so areas have their own codes. If an address pertains to a specific location, the postal code of that place is incorporated into the address. Common identifiers of an address (for example, the location of an apartment) include:
- Name (Owner or renter of the appartment)
- Street, house number and optionally the floor
- Postal code and location
- Country
- Region and Subregion
