The location address of a building is formed of the street name, street number with possible specifiers and municipality of location.
Statistics Finland's building data are based on the Building and Dwelling Register of the Population Information System maintained by the Population Register Centre. In this register most buildings have a street address. Some buildings, including residential buildings, have a place name or a specifier for mail delivery in place of a street name. A building can have at most four street addresses. Such cases are buildings covering a whole block when four streets of different names go past the building. In the Population Information System addresses of buildings with many addresses are given a serial number.
