If so, that's unfortunate. The standard for address interchange
between address book and similar apps is vCard:

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VCard

which suggests "locality". I always advise anyone setting up an
address database to map their fields to vCard's, for increased
interoperability. Such mapping can, of course, include concatenating
two fields (separated by, say, a comma) into one.
