Your'e looking at the result in correctly,-- that is not a comment in the array! Its the "stringified" output of the array that contains Geocoder::Result objects.
res = Geocoder.search(addy1).first res.data # => gives you entire data .. seen as @data and then you can traverse as a hash There are other helper routines too (a few mentioned below). res.address res.city res.state res.formatted_address res.coordinates etc. See these two files to learn all the methods of Geocoder::Result https://github.com/alexreisner/geocoder/blob/master/lib/geocoder/results/google.rb https://github.com/alexreisner/geocoder/blob/master/lib/geocoder/results/base.rb Cheers! @gautamrege ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All wiyht.
