    I mean, if no one has a cell phone almost everyone in your daily life only required 4 digits to remember. The first 6 numbers was the same for the whole town.

    “Area codes” were a big deal, even Ludacris made a song about being so famous, he knew women from multiple geographic locations.

    Maps were there in case of emergencies, nowadays people gps to the same office they’ve been driving to for a decade. But that’s more about random traffic conditions.
