Calgary's number system is way better.

I agree that the number system is much easier, plus it lends itself to simple math (what, you want me to go all the way to 125th SE?!?!). Buuut... it's so bland. I dunno, I just like named streets, I think it adds a little bit of character.
Numbered streets don't work everywhere... you can't build straight roads in many places, like much of the city I live in. Too hilly.
