I hope I didn't make any mistakes with the file formatting.

Hello, thanks for contributing.

You are obviously Hungarian, but many sources online including the posta.hu seem to indicate the format is

[City]
[Street name] [House#] [Floor] / [Door#]
[Postal code]

see for example https://www.posta.hu/static/internet/download/correct_addressing.pdf

or the discussion here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/hungarian/comments/qxs5da/address_format_in_hungary/

Why do you have a different opinion?

@freyfogle These are both describing the post mail addressing format, which is basically not used anywhere else.
(Yeah, it's complicated...) I've suggested the only format that is grammatically correct and is in wide use.

A better reference: https://www.szaktars.hu/osiris/view/laczko-krisztina-martonfi-attila-helyesiras-a-magyar-nyelv-kezikonyvtara-1-2004/?pg=419&layout=s
It's only available to students based in Hungary, so here are its two relevant pages (see the 2nd paragraph on the 2nd page): OsirisKonyvek_0515__pages419-420.pdf
