35% of addresses in Ireland aren't unique.
I strongly suspect we have a different understanding of either 'address'
or 'uniqueness' here.
Possibly. The Irish definition is "a property has the same address with
a least one other property". I'm not talking about 2 postboxes that are
beside each other in an apartment block, but 2 houses which could be a
distance apart. Post/Packages is delivered partially based on surname,
or "local knowledge" 😉. It is/was a pain. The new postcode ("eircode")
will help. Now, you may say the surname is part of the address, but what
happens when someone moves house?
The 'names' I refer to are the 'names' of the property, not the name of
the resident/s.
