Python Pandas Geopy AttributeError 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'raw' , getting city, state and country from long/lat

I've looked around for a solution and tried filtering my df to where the longitude and latitude are not null but to no avail. This is my first time using geopy package so maybe my error is stemming from that. I have a df that includes long/lat coords and I'm trying to attach city, state and country to each observation. When I limit my df to just the first 10 rows my code works like a charm. When I apply it to the whole df(34,556 observations) I get this error code: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'raw'.


from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim

geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="geoapiExercises")

df_power_org = pd.read_csv('global_power_plant_database.csv', low_memory=False)

df_power_org = df_power_org[df_power_org.longitude.notnull()]
df_power_org = df_power_org[df_power_org.latitude.notnull()]

def city_state_country(row):
    coord = f"{row['latitude']}, {row['longitude']}"
    location = geolocator.reverse(coord, exactly_one=True, language='en')
    address = location.raw['address']
    city = address.get('city', '')
    state = address.get('state', '')
    country = address.get('country', '')
    row['city'] = city
    row['state'] = state
    row['country2'] = country
    return row

df_power_org = df_power_org.apply(city_state_country, axis=1)

Any advice is deeply appreciated.

From geopy's documentation:

Nominatim is free, but provides low request limits.

Digging a little deaper, Nominatim's site states:

No heavy uses (an absolute maximum of 1 request per second).

It's likely that you're being blocked by Nominatim for excessive requests.

If you want to use Nominatim and follow their instructions, you can modify your code to pause after each request... this will take about 10 hours to do all 34k requests.

from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim
from time import sleep

geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="geoapiExercises")

df_power_org = pd.read_csv('global_power_plant_database.csv', low_memory=False)

df_power_org = df_power_org[df_power_org.longitude.notnull()]
df_power_org = df_power_org[df_power_org.latitude.notnull()]

def city_state_country(row):
    coord = f"{row['latitude']}, {row['longitude']}"
    sleep(1)
    location = geolocator.reverse(coord, exactly_one=True, language='en')
    if not location:
        # if you see many in a row, it's probably Nominatim blocking you.
        # if it's just every once in a while, there were just some bad results. 
        print('Failed with coord: ', coord)
        row['city'], row['state'], row['country2'] = None, None, None
        return row
    address = location.raw['address']
    city = address.get('city', '')
    state = address.get('state', '')
    country = address.get('country', '')
    row['city'] = city
    row['state'] = state
    row['country2'] = country
    return row

df_power_org = df_power_org.apply(city_state_country, axis=1)
