What is the address sorting business?

What is Address Sorting?
The current Inagi City address and location display method uses the lot number, which is the land number.
Lot numbers were originally not used to find out where people lived, but were assigned to land mainly for the purpose of tax collection during the Meiji period.
As a result, the regularity of the numbers is lost every time land is subdivided or road maintenance is carried out, making it very difficult to understand, such as numbers jumping or many houses being built on the same lot number. .
In order to resolve this situation, we are proceeding with the display of easy-to-understand addresses and locations.

Effect of address sorting
Address arrangement can be expected to improve the convenience and safety of citizens' lives by organizing the display of addresses and locations in conjunction with reviewing town areas and setting chomes. In addition, it will be possible to ascertain the number of households, etc., for each town area, which is expected not only to improve and improve local activities, but also to be effective in responding to disasters.
Address arrangement method
There are two methods of address sorting: "town area town name lot number sorting", which renumbers the land, and "residential indication", which assigns addresses based on the location of the building.
Current status of Inagi City
Six villages, Yanoguchi Village, Higashi Naganuma Village, Daimaru Village, Hyakumura Village, Sakahama Village, and Hirao Village merged in 1889 to form Inagi Village. After that, the Oshidate district was incorporated in 1949, and with the increase in population, it became Inagi Town in 1957 and Inagi City in 1971. As the Tama New Town project progressed, Koyodai, Nagamine, and Wakabadai districts were born, and now there are 10 districts, including the previous 7 districts.
Addresses were arranged in the Koyodai area in 1987, the Nagamine area in 1994, and the Wakabadai area in 1998 in line with the opening of the Tama New Town area. In addition, in 1990 and 1993, part of the Hirao area was reorganized into town boundaries and town names.
