Addressing Guidelines​

The presence of readable building numbers is helpful to emergency services as well as to visitors. In emergency situations, minutes can make a difference.

Here are some suggestions and considerations:

  • Your numbers should be visible day or night, rain or shine.
  • Corner lot buildings should have posted numbers on the side of the building on which it is addressed.​
  • Backlit numbers on light fixtures can be helpful as long as the bulb is not too bright.
  • Screen and storm doors can obstruct visibility of numbers on your front door.
  • Building numbers should be visible from the road.

The E9-1-1 Addressing Office supports the naming and coordination of streets across unincorporated Lee County. For municipal addressing questions or additional information about property addressing, see related links.
