An easy way to get an Address is through google's API.

For example.

using System.Xml;

//Console.WriteLine("enter coordinate:");
string coordinate = "32.797821,-96.781720"; //Console.ReadLine();

XmlDocument xDoc = new XmlDocument();
xDoc.Load("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?latlng=" + coordinate);

XmlNodeList xNodelst = xDoc.GetElementsByTagName("result");
XmlNode xNode = xNodelst.Item(0);
string FullAddress = xNode.SelectSingleNode("formatted_address").InnerText;
string Number = xNode.SelectSingleNode("address_component[1]/long_name").InnerText;
string Street = xNode.SelectSingleNode("address_component[2]/long_name").InnerText;
string Village = xNode.SelectSingleNode("address_component[3]/long_name").InnerText;
string Area = xNode.SelectSingleNode("address_component[4]/long_name").InnerText;
string County = xNode.SelectSingleNode("address_component[5]/long_name").InnerText;
string State = xNode.SelectSingleNode("address_component[6]/long_name").InnerText;
string Zip = xNode.SelectSingleNode("address_component[8]/long_name").InnerText;
string Country = xNode.SelectSingleNode("address_component[7]/long_name").InnerText;
Console.WriteLine("Full Address: " + FullAddress);
Console.WriteLine("Number: " + Number);
Console.WriteLine("Street: " + Street);
Console.WriteLine("Village: " + Village);
Console.WriteLine("Area: " + Area);
Console.WriteLine("County: " + County);
Console.WriteLine("State: " + State);
Console.WriteLine("Zip: " + Zip);
Console.WriteLine("Country: " + Country);

Console.ReadLine();

P.S. be careful with different addresses with different components.
