House numbering based on direction

You guys ever wondered about house numbering system here in US. I did. You can easily determine which side the house or apartment is going to be if you know the direction you are walking.

If you are walking towards east even numbers come on your right and odd numbers on left. It is exactly opposite if you are walking towards west.

The same rule applies to north and south. North is like east and south is like west. As simple as that.
