Who determines which end of the street is number 1? Is it also the same person who decides which side of the street is odd vs even?

Question

Had the thought pop into my head randomly the other day. I’m assuming this is a town planning thing, but is there any sort of a guideline for making these decisions?

Answer 1

Usually it’s based off your main Street (like Main Street).

So if you live on North Amber, the closest address to Main Street (or whatever main East/West street is regarded as the main thoroughfare) would be #1.
Usually the right side of the street is odd, opposite is even (i might have that backwards tho)
