Also from public data

These don't ask for credit: addresses from the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Address Database, street ranges from the U.S. Census Bureau, and libraries and museums from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

Naming a source here doesn't mean it endorses the hotspot.guide.
