Brad,

Where I live, suburbs are well known, have fixed borders (though they
can be and are sometimes adjusted), and are part of your address
according to the post office and local government.

In the US, the problem is that address place names depend on which post office serves the area, and there is no freely available accurate data showing this. Many suburban areas outside Orlando city limits have Orlando in the address, and there are some cases where a place in city A uses an address that is not city A.
