In German cities we have 90-100% of the roads, but it's not that good in
remote rural areas. There

In Denver the houses are all set back a lot further, so some way to say 'on

And this is ok too, it means that both these ways in TIGER are one way

What I know of it is the tiger ID came from the ID of each unique item in
the tiger DB. A road segment that had an address range was one, the next
address range was another ID. Basically each intersection to intersection.
