I know casa means house...

Does he live in a Spanish-speaking country?

Can't you just send him a message and ask him to clarify?

150 1st Street?


This makes sense but there needs to be a city with it too.

Oh well I've got the city and stuff just fine, that's the odd part. He got the bottom half right but the top is a mess.

Alright, when I put what Mana said into MapQuest, it actually comes up as Calle 1, so...I'm going with it.

I did ask him, so I'll wait a bit before sending.

Definitely wait until you get the clarification. Note the number 2 there.

He could be writing it as you are thinking, with 150 being the house number. That would make the address:

Victor Rojas
150 Calle 1 (like, 150 1st street)
Blah Blah City, State, Zip

Alternately, the 150 may be the apartment number. Note the number 2. It comes before the street name, which would be fairly standard for both PR and the States really. In that case it would be written as:

Victor Rojas
2 Calle 1 Casa 150 (2 1st Street, APT 150)
Blah Blah City, State, Zip

The way he wrote it is definitely ass looking though, especially with no spaces or line breaks.

And yes, that is also an option. I actually kind of like that more, but it's very ambiguous if you don't follow address writing standards lol.

Well it's stupid

You only think it's stupid because you don't like people that aren't white (your words, not mine), which is why you're routinely banned from posting on this site.

Good job hijacking Ltm's thread, making it a place to insult me. In case you didn't notice, I was giving him a legitimate answer. Who's the real troll?

Eh? It's stupid either way. The lack of spacing and indication of what is what is a real issue. The name is generally (and by generally, I mean pretty much always) separated from the physical address. They fall on separate lines. In addition, there shouldn't be a #2 at the beginning of the address. Using # is usually saved for apartment or suite numbers. In that case, it should fall at the end of the address. If it is the house or building number, it can go at the beginning and should drop the #. This isn't some ethnocentric "This is how 'murika does it this is how it should be" stuff either, we're talking about Puerto Rico. They're serviced by the USPS and use the same address standards as the rest of the states.

The guy who typed that just did it wrong, that's why it is stupid.

He may be a racist and deserves to be lol'd at, but uhh.. his post in this topic doesn't really show that. Trolling him no matter what he posts doesn't really serve any purpose other than to crap up every thread he ever posts in, regardless of the topic at hand or if he even posted anything wrong.

Besides, not like you're going to accomplish anything. Do you think he's just going to leave or something?

Victor Rojas is a landmark. I googled it. No idea why it's in there.

The guys name is Jesus Sanchez.

Yes seriously.

Jesus is a pretty common name.


Anyway, is it a confirmed address? As long as it is, you should just write that and it'll get there.

Yeah that's the address. I missed the apartment #, though.

And I know it's a common name, it's just Jesus Sanchez has got to be the most generic hispanic name ever <_<

It's like John Smith.
