As a rather extreme first-world example, the address of
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/132723167 is:

name=Grand Canyon North Rim Lodge
addr:city=North Rim
addr:state=AZ

Not only does the building not have a house number, house name, or
other house identifier, the road it's on isn't named either.  When
there's only one road in town, and that road only has one building that
receives mail, you don't need much in the way of identifiers.
