Documentation:
A word preceding or following the street name that indicates the directional taken by the thoroughfare from an arbitrary starting point, or the sector where it is located. 1. Standard USPS English abbreviations are E, W, S, N, NE, SE, SW, NW 2. Standard USPS Spanish abbreviations are E, O, S, N, NE, SE, SO, NO 3. USPS Publication 28 recomends abbreviating post-directionals. The Address Standards Working Group differs, and recommends storing post -directionals fully spelled out, exactly as given by the local naming authority, to avoid confusion. For example: "NW Jones St": Is it Northwest Jones Street? Ned Walter Jones Street? North Walter Jones Street? The abbreviations create ambiguity. If stored unabbreviated, directionals can be exported as standard abbreviations as needed for mailing and other purposes.
