معنی
Stating your place of residence
زمینه فرهنگی
Norwegians are very proud of their 'hjemsted' (hometown). Even if they live in Oslo, they will often identify with the place they grew up. The city is divided by the Akerselva river. Historically, the east was for workers and the west for the wealthy. This still influences how people perceive your address. Using 'i' vs 'på' is a cultural minefield. Generally, 'i' is for inland/valleys and 'på' is for islands/coasts, but there are many exceptions based on local tradition. Living in a 'borettslag' (housing cooperative) is very common in Oslo. It's a specific social and legal way of living together.
The Preposition Rule
When in doubt, use 'i' for cities. You'll be right 90% of the time.
Leve vs Bo
Never say 'Jeg lever i Oslo' unless you are writing a dramatic poem about survival.

You say 'Jeg bor i [Gatenavn] [Nummer]'. For example: 'Jeg bor i Karl Johans gate 1'.
