 Re : enhancement proposal - nominatim search result - ranked by priority ?


 Search for :
 Torcy

 The first 4 results are administrative polygons...

 The town only appears on rank 5.

 I suggest to sort the results by priority or relevance, to show an
 important placename such as a town before an administrative zone.


 PS I mean, do you really know many users of geodata in the real world who
 wants to get an administrative before a town ?
