If you live in a country where State is not the common term - for example, in the United Kingdom - then use this field for your local alternative - eg county. There's plenty of space for names like "North Yorkshire".

Use the address fields in whatever manner seems logical, but try and be consistent. It will help you to identify duplicate records.

Finally, tick the boxes to indicate which, if any, address should be used to send promotional material to this contact. Or leave both boxes unticked if you do not wish to use this feature, or if the contact does not wish to receive any material at his or her home address.
