Usage Advice

Use when

• Use for the city or town line of an address — the level a precise home address is typically coarsened to for public disclosure.

Avoid when

• Avoid forcing a normalized spelling (non-functional — source variants coexist) and avoid using it for the resolved locality place (reached via gmeow:addressPlace → gmeow:containedInPlace).

How to use

• Carry the locality as written; this is the usual gmeow:coarsenTo target, so a city-level public projection emits it while withholding the finer street components.

Examples

• ex:home gmeow:addressLocality "Calgary".
