Wrong localization with geopy

Question

I am using geopy to geolocate some French Paris streets. I have seen a problem on this localisation: 25 rue Constantine, Paris.

The code below:

location2 = geolocator.geocode("25 rue Constantine, Paris",timeout=20)
arrival=(location2.latitude, location2.longitude)
print arrival

Gives those latitude and longitude for this street:

(45.1586776, 5.7459736)

which is close to French Grenoble city (about 450 km away from Paris !).

Do you know what could be the problem ?

By advance thank you.

Cheers, Olivier

It find "2-4 Rue de Paris, 38320 Eybens" according to Google maps.

It seems you've made a spelling mistake. Are you perhaps looking for "25 rue de Constantine, Paris"?
