I technically did not have an address growing up

There's was a land location although I can never remember it. Everything came to a box number.

I lived in town, but I too had a Box number address for the first 18 years. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Nov 8, 08:47 2
- A lot of directions to parties were "drive to the mailbox, turn left and go past the red house (the house is blue) and then stop at the trees" -- nm - Reagen Nov 8, 08:54 1
  - Oh my gosh, yes. A lot of that when I was young. - Dark Callisto 🦊 Nov 8, 09:01
A friend in rural east Texas was like this. Her house's address was something like "Route 1 Box 322 Anytown, TX 12345" - ty97 Nov 8, 08:22 6
- That's what rural Wisco used to be like too, as I recall. -- nm - mara Nov 8, 08:35
- That was similar to our address on the farm in Nebraska -- just a rural route number, not a geographical address. And the RRN would change - ReluctantCynic Nov 8, 08:32
- Dave's aunt in Wales, on a pretty regular street, didn't have a street number. - Andie Nov 8, 08:25 1

- I think there might be civic addresses there now, but I was in university before I had a street address. -- nm - Reagen Nov 8, 08:24 1
