Description
When using an address where the location is in a township, but the mailing address is in another city it will not map the location until the city name is the township.
For example, I live in Tyrone Township, MI USA but my US Postal Service mailing address is actually in Fenton, MI USA. If I enter my actual city it finds my location, but if I enter my true mailing address it does not find my location.
I don't want to put my physical address in here, but if you map any address in Tyrone Township, MI using Fenton, MI as the city/state it won't work even though that is the correct USPS mailing address.

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by reproducing the township and USPS mailing-city example, then trace the address lookup entry point to identify where city and location are matched. Done means a valid mailing address such as Fenton, MI resolves to its location without requiring the township name.
