Address Geocode: US Census Address & UK Postcode Lookup
Geocode US street addresses with the official U.S. Census Bureau geocoder (lat/lon, county, census tract, block group, congressional district, GEOIDs) and look up UK postcodes (ONS via postcodes.io: region, council, ward, constituency, NHS ICB). No match = not charged. Pay per lookup.

Turn a US street address or a UK postcode into coordinates and official areas, straight from government sources. Built for AI agents (delivery, logistics, real estate, tax, CRM) and usable from the Apify MCP server.
What it does
- US addresses (
usAddresses): matched by the official U.S. Census Bureau Geocoder (benchmark Public_AR_Current). Returns the standardised address, latitude/longitude, state, county, place, census tract, block group, block, ZIP code tabulation area, metro area, school district and congressional district, each with its official GEOID. - UK postcodes (
ukPostcodes): looked up in the ONS Postcode Directory via postcodes.io. Returns latitude/longitude, country, region, local authority, ward, parish, parliamentary constituency (2024 boundaries), NHS ICB, police force and LSOA.
Pricing (pay per event)
| Event | Price | Charged when |
|---|---|---|
us-geocode | $0.003 | one US address matched |
uk-postcode | $0.002 | one UK postcode found |
No match, invalid input or a source outage is never charged. No start fee.
Example
Input:
{"usAddresses": ["1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 20500"], "ukPostcodes": ["M1 1AE"]}
Output (shortened, real values):
{"endpoint": "us_geocode", "ok": true, "result": {"matched_address": "1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE NW, WASHINGTON, DC, 20500", "lat": 38.898703, "lon": -77.035189, "geographies": {"state": {"name": "District of Columbia", "geoid": "11"}, "county": {"name": "District of Columbia", "geoid": "11001"}}}, "charged_event": "us-geocode"}{"endpoint": "uk_postcode", "ok": true, "result": {"postcode": "M1 1AE", "lat": 53.483487, "lon": -2.231182, "admin_district": "Manchester", "parliamentary_constituency": "Manchester Central"}, "charged_event": "uk-postcode"}
Limits (honest)
- US coordinates are interpolated along Census address ranges (street-level precision, not rooftop).
- US: street addresses with a house number only (no PO boxes). Some very new or private addresses (campuses, new developments) are not yet in the Census ranges and return
no_match(not charged). - UK: postcode lookup only, not full address matching.
- No coverage outside the US and the UK yet.
