Okay - i have one bug - The Street <> Place link is broken. It seems 
"place=locality"
is used too which is not something one would search for ...

I am basically living in 

        Alt Hammoor
        33397 Rietberg
        Germany

The point is that Alt Hammoor is ONLY findable via "Löhner" as town. Löhner
is only a locality - not even a hamlet. The next places e.g. 33449 Langenberg 
is broken
(Different Town), Mastholte and Bokel are both only "suburbs" or parts of 
"Rietberg".

This region has correct postal_code and boundarys relations.

I would expect Alt Hammoor to be findable via Rietberg, and as a goodie to be
findable via Mastholte and/or Bokel.
