The one-square- mile town has neither parking points more street lights. Additionally, there are no number plates for houses or business points. The major reason behind this scene is the inclination of earlier artists who gave their homes names after their names rather than numbers. And the houses were identified by those names, not numbers. But, today, this practice has lost its influence. Number plates are essential for mailing purpose in the village. Unfortunately, for this reason, the inhabitants go to the nearby post offices to receive their mails. However, the overnight delivery services are running in the town. They have their plan to recognize addresses and make the deliveries accessible right on the door of the receivers.
