[postgis-users] Any robust regex for searching out addresses?

[Jo]

It would help if you had a bigger sample of valid addresses.

This may be a good starting point:

(\d+)(\w*)(-)?(\d+)(\w*)(\s)([\w\s]+),\s?([\w\s]+),\s?([\w\s]+)

https://pythex.org/?regex=(%5Cd%2B)(%5Cw*)(-)%3F(%5Cd%2B)(%5Cw*)(%5Cs)(%5B%5Cw%5Cs%5D%2B)%2C%5Cs%3F(%5B%5Cw%5Cs%5D%2B)%2C%5Cs%3F(%5B%5Cw%5Cs%5D%2B)&test_string=223A-5D%20Great%20Avenue%2C%20A%20City%2C%20Planet%20Earth&ignorecase=0&multiline=0&dotall=0&verbose=0
