Re: State - AdministrativeAreaName not consistent

[Benjamin Stein]

I'm seeing this too.  Here's an example:

A query for "asheville nc" returns <AdministrativeAreaName>N Carolina</
AdministrativeAreaName>
A query for "1 main st asheville nc" returns
<AdministrativeAreaName>NC</AdministrativeAreaName>

I'm not sure how to standardize this.  The XML responses are below.

Thanks for any suggestions!
