I am currently using the Google API to geocode user entered addresses
and get a lat/lng. I currently use the AdministrativeAreaName field
to get the state of the result. This seems to work most of the time,
however, I just noticed that when geocoding a certain city (Asheville,
NC), it returns "N Carolina" instead of the usual 2 digit state
abbreviation ("NC"). Is there any reason for this, or can I not rely
on the Administrative area to be consistent?
Here is the inconsistent API call:
http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=asheville,nc
versus it working:
http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=new%20york,%20ny
Thanks,
Alex
