Q: Why does the 'street_or_mailbox_no' column contain a long list of numbers?

This is an efficient way to structure the data. The field contains a comma-separated list of specific house numbers or PO Box numbers associated with the address.
Example: "8, 10, 12, 17, 20..." means that all these specific house numbers on that street share the same postal code record.

Q: What does the 'address_type' column represent?

This column classifies the type of address and determines the content of the street_postboks_place field:
· Gateadresse: Standard Street Address (e.g., "Gateveien").
· Postboksadresse: P.O. Box Address.
· Stedsadresse: A Place or Farm name without a specific street name.

Q: What is the format of the postal code?

Norway uses a 4-digit numeric postal code (e.g., 5960, 3071). This is found in the postal_code column.

Q: What is the difference between 'kommuner' and 'locality'?

It is important to distinguish between the administrative and postal divisions:
· kommuner: The Administrative Municipality (e.g., "GULEN").
· locality: The official postal city used in the address (e.g., "DALSØYRA").
