It's not even like it's only difficult for us poor gaijin. It's difficult for everyone. Even taxi drivers familiar with an area can have trouble finding places purely from the address. In the little village (it's really quite small) I work at couriers are almost daily coming into our office for assistance on finding where the offices are of other businesses. They have the correct address and everything but as those of us who live here know that helps very little at times.
Is the concept of having a number and street name really so difficult to comprehend?!!

Please tell me about the addresses etc-- Do the streets not have names and the houses Numbers? How confusing that must be!!!
