Streets go North, South, Avenues go East, West. All have a SW, NW, SE,NE designation to tell you what side of downtown you are on. It isn't that difficult to figure out.

That's not too far from here and I've only driven in that area a few times but it is pretty chopped up with many similar sounding road names.

As many times as I've been to Hickory, I've never noticed that

See the parts after the street name (NE, SE, NW, SW)? Those mean something.

We've got that here too - and then you have to make sure you've got St. vs. Ave. right - and Places are in there too. Very common urban planning. There are intersections of 1st st and 1st ave

That's pretty logical... i'd take it any day over Atlanta's Peachtree mayhem
