Norfolk City Master List of Valid Street Names

Norfolk's master list contains valid street names, including those on military bases and privately maintained roads. The data is provided by data.norfolk.gov and was last updated in April 2026. Street names include fully spelled-out directional prefixes and suffixes as legally recorded.

Use Cases

• Validate address inputs using the `Street Name`, `Street Suffix`, `Pre Dir`, and `Post Dir` columns.
• Map street network status and types by analyzing the `Status` and `Type` fields.
• Generate standardized full street addresses by concatenating the `Full Name` or its component columns.
• Filter or categorize streets based on maintenance jurisdiction using the `Status` field.

Strengths

• Data includes streets from military bases and private maintenance, broadening coverage.
• Provides multiple directional components (`Pre Dir`, `Post Dir`) for precise address parsing.
• Offers multiple machine-readable formats including CSV, JSON, XML, and RDF.

Limitations

• Unknown total row count and dataset size prevents assessment of comprehensiveness.
• Sample data is unavailable, making initial data structure and quality checks difficult.
• Potential geographic bias as the dataset is limited to the city of Norfolk.
