Location mining from text

I'm working on a text mining problem: extract the place from the text. The place could be either only states, or more specific such as name of a neighborhood in Chicago, or even a specific address. But it's only in US.

I've been trying Yahoo Place maker api, but I can't create the api key ( the website is not responding). Is there anyway to do it, such as rapid miner, or write a comprehensive regex?

Consider Stanford Named Entity Recognizer (NER). Online demo here:

http://nlp.stanford.edu:8080/ner/process

It's a java library. License is GPL v2, though the license to distribute in a standalone app is pricey.
