Not Getting House Numbers Back on /search for custom installation

[ajheflin]

Hi,

So this is probably a total knowledge issue, but when I search using my personal Nominatim installation using this query: http://{api_url}/search?q=315+E+Kennedy+Blvd,+Tampa

I get back:

  }
]

However, when using the official Nominatim API using the same query via: https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?q=315+E+Kennedy+Blvd%2C+Tampa

I get a much more concise list of 1 result, and that result includes a street number:

[
  {
    "place_id": 332233637,
    "licence": "Data © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0. https://osm.org/copyright",

    "osm_id": 115040529,
    "boundingbox": [

      "27.947725075472",
      "-82.457746207547",
      "-82.457646207547"
    ],
    "lat": "27.9476750754717",
    "lon": "-82.45769620754717",
    "display_name": "315, East Kennedy Boulevard, Harbour Island, Tampa, Hillsborough County, Florida, 33602, United States",
    "place_rank": 30,
    "category": "place",
    "type": "house",
    "importance": -0.73
  }
]

What data am I missing/config options do I need to change in order to make my API return similar results to the official one (moreso returning the house number in the display_name field than anything else, really)?

I'm using this data export from Geofabrik: http://download.geofabrik.de/north-america/us/florida-latest.osm.pbf

Thanks for adding an example. That house number is part of US Census data. Here's instructuions how to add those https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/customize/Tiger/

I'm not sure how to restrict that to Florida only. The .tar.gz file contains 3000 files and the filenames are 5 digit numbers. I think https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIPS_county_code numbers. But first try importing everything, it takes about 2-3 hours.
