description: 'This field indicates whether an address was found in a more comprehensive address dataset that includes sources from the USPS, open source mapping data, and our proprietary mail delivery data.
This field can be interpreted as a representation of whether an address is a real location or not. Additionally a valid address may contradict the deliverability field since an address can be a real valid location but the USPS may not deliver to that address.
