Hi, The correct way to say it is eg I live on 25th Street eg I live at 18, 25th street. eg I live on Maple Street eg I live at 18, Maple Street. The commas are often omitted.

Hi,

Is there any difference between AmE and BrE ? I don't think so. except the the British use names and not numbers for streets, eg Maple Street but not 25th Street.

!8 is the number of the house.
