Q: In what language are the data and documentation provided?

The dataset uses official Turkish place names to ensure compatibility with PTT (Turkish Post) standards (e.g., "ADANA", "ALADAĞ", "AKÖREN MAH").
Important: The data contains Turkish-specific characters (Ç, Ğ, İ, Ö, Ş, Ü). You must strictly use UTF-8 encoding when importing this data to ensure these characters are displayed correctly.

Q: What is the difference between 'neighborhood_village' and 'postal_region'?

Understanding this distinction is key to using the dataset correctly:
· neighborhood_village: The actual physical neighborhood (Mahalle) or village (Köy) where the address is located (e.g., "AKÖREN MAH").
· postal_region: The name of the postal distribution center or main locality used for mail sorting (e.g., "MADENLİ").
As seen in the data, a single postal_region (like Madenli) often serves multiple different neighborhoods, which is why they share the same postal code.

Q: What is the administrative hierarchy in the dataset?

The data follows Turkey's official administrative structure:
1. Province (İl): The top-level administrative division (e.g., "ADANA").
2. District (İlçe): The secondary division within a province (e.g., "ALADAĞ").
3. Neighborhood/Village: The most granular settlement level.

Q: What is the format of the postal code?

Turkey uses a 5-digit numeric postal code (e.g., 01722, 01922). This is found in the pc column. The first two digits typically represent the license plate code of the province (e.g., 01 for Adana).

Q: What file formats are included in the delivery?

The package includes CSV, Excel (.xlsx), and TXT formats. With approximately 73,000 records, the dataset is easily manageable in Excel or any standard database.
