House numbers are part of segments. Please see the wiki info.

Address pin locations are usually fed from external sources, which seem to be country-dependent. For US, Canada and other countries, bing is the primary address provider. For your country, go to bing maps and enter the address search. Search the same in the Waze editor and see if the pins match location. There is also an entry in FAQ about fixing addresses, which may or may not be helpful depending on the underlying data provider.

Dear Ali,

You could use the add house numbers option on the Client as well as WME. Hope that helped.

Regards,
Chris
