Can anyone tell me how a house number is determined if you wanted to build in the middle of nowhere and your neigbors property is for instance several miles away and numbered #1 and you are #1000 and the neigbor the other side is #4364
How is that worked out? Web link would be nice

It varies. If you're inside a city limit, some office inside of the City Public Works will be in charge of designating addresses. If not, first check with the county, and then whatever entity maintains the road that accesses the property. Could be state, county, or even a road district.

In our neck of the woods, the addresses are determined by mileage, and were all set up in response to our area beginning a 911 system, where all the houses needed a specific number. So whichever agency oversees 911 is the one which determines addresses in rural areas. Here, the specific numbers of specific houses correlate to mileage. Adresses start with lowest numbers on the southern or eastern end of a road or highway and going higher in number the further north or west you travel. Now that this is all clear as mud , I'll try to make it clearer.

In our area, houses less than a mile from the south or east end of the road are numbered 0-999. Between 1 and 2 miles, 1000-1999 and so on. If a house is exactly half a mile north, for instance, the address will be 500. A mile and a half north, 1500. 1.876 miles north, 1876. And so on. 27.83 miles north, the address will be 27830.

Hope that makes it clearer (but I'm confused at my own explanation)
