About the Fake Address Generator
Address fields are where forms break, because every country structures them differently. This generates addresses that follow the local pattern: a UK postcode looks like a UK postcode, a US ZIP is five digits, and the region field is labelled county or state to match.
They are fabricated rather than sampled. Street names are real street names and the numbers are random, so an address is plausible without being anyone's. That is what you want for testing a form, seeding a database or filling a checkout screenshot — a real address in a test fixture is someone's home, and it has a habit of ending up in a repository.
Key features of the Fake Address Generator

A UK postcode looks like a UK postcode, a US ZIP is five digits, and the region is labelled county or state to match.
Real streets, invented numbers
Plausible without being anyone’s — which is what you want in a fixture that will end up in a repository.
Structured or formatted
Separate fields for a database, or one formatted line for a label or a screenshot.
Six countries
UK, US, Germany, France, Australia and India, each with its own cities and regions.
Bulk output
JSON, CSV or plain text, for a seed file or a test suite.

Frequently asked questions
The street names and cities are real; the house numbers and postcodes are generated. A given address is very unlikely to exist and is not anyone's in particular.
They pass format checks. They will not pass a real address lookup against a postal database, which is the correct outcome — a validator that accepted them would not be validating anything.
Because address structure genuinely differs. A form that assumes a five-digit ZIP breaks on a UK postcode, and one that assumes a state breaks nearly everywhere else.
Because it belongs to someone, and test fixtures end up in repositories, screenshots and bug reports. Generated data has none of that risk.
