How about US postal addresses?

<House number> <Street>

<City> <State> <ZIP code>

Except for ZIP code, the address elements are ordered in descending specificity.

Addresses in Japan are written in exactly the opposite order, with the post code being written at the top of envelope followed by the prefecture, state, etc. Its simply what you are used to.
