Hi all,
I believe TIGER has some data on addresses; more specifically, it has

address info in OSM. Some cities have many businesses and POIs
Ah, ok. I wasn't aware that Nominatim uses the address ranges as a
fallback. I typically use the data exports offline in OsmAnd, and so
don't see the address ranges from the TIGER data.
Does the Public Domain status mean that they can be used and imported
into OpenStreetMap? I might start soon
