Most villages in Romania don't have street names at all, and typically people use "Main Street" in where it is absolutely required to put a street name. However, the official address, as is written in the national ID, contains no street name, just a house number. Many villages have houses spread out on a network of streets, not just along a single main street, so using "Main Street" in OSM doesn't seem like a good idea. Is this supported in any of the OpenStreetMap search applications (like Nominatim) or having a street name is a must? I would like to be able to search for "<house_number>, <village_name>, <country>". asked 13 Jul '15, 15:53  CrazyBanana closed 15 Jul '15, 11:37  sleske |

Hi CrazyBanana, read this https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/16703/addresses-without-streetnames And these lines as well https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Addresses An address is useable even if it does not include a street name, but some kind of specific code, like RR 12OSM456 (Road route 12OSM456). answered 13 Jul '15, 16:11  Hendrikklaas It looks like my search skills are abysmal, I didn't find the question you reference.
