My download of Tiger has all the *addr* files for Arizona and I believe 
I have accessed them all without a problem.


In general, the *addr* files are optional, and there are none for Guam, 
American Samoa and Virgin Islands.

Typically if the county or county equivalent does not have roads with 
address ranges in it, then it will not have any *addr* files. So it is 
possible that a county in Arizona in say the desert might not have any 
address ranges and therefore not have that file, but looking at the list 
of counties in Arizona it looks like they all have those files.
