Answer 1

There is powerful open-source library libpostal that fits for this use case very nicely. There are bindings to different programming languages. Libpostal is a C library for parsing/normalizing street addresses around the world using statistical NLP and open data. The goal of this project is to understand location-based strings in every language, everywhere.

I have created a simple Docker image with Python binding pypostal you can spin off and try very easily pypostal-docker
