addr:city is normally set to the name of the municipality.

  • When there are named streets, even if these streets are in different villages, the name of the village is lost.
  • Except when a named street appears in two villages of the same municipality, addr:city contains the name of the village and the name of the municipality is lost.
  • Except for some other cases, the logic of which escapes me.

Why not set the name of the village in addr:hamlet? Incidentially, this would also solve the confusion of addr:street and addr:place.

The API returns for the place in #16

"municipality":"St. Pölten","locality":"Zwerndorf","postcode":"3140","street":"Zwerndorf","house_number":"21"

so it would be possible to set the locality to addr:hamlet.

I only provide the server for the BEV data but I am not the author nor have I any write permission to this repo.

addr:suburb might be a better choice, as it`s used in Germany in the sense of "Ortsname". Probably requires more community discussion.
