When I search for the address

Lakeview Dr, Dubuque, IA

it is located correctly, however the description states

"Lakeview Drive, Lost Canyon Mobile Home Park, Dubuque County, Iowa, United States of America"

For some reason this street and a number of others are child to "Lost Canyon Mobile Home Park" which is incorrect. In fact if you look at the area represented by "Lost Canyon Mobile Home Park" you can see that it does not geographically overlap Lakeview Drive.

Needs fixing in the OSM data.

The mobile park comes from a node tagged as place=hamlet: http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/151409785
As a node has no well defined area, Nominatim has to take an educated guess. The road is also outside the area of [http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=97976663 Dubuque], which is why only the county shows up in the address.
