Simple alternative to django-cities
Project description
django-cities-light – Simple django-cities alternative
This add-on provides models and commands to import country/city data into your database. The data is pulled from GeoNames and contains:
country names
city names
Spatial query support is not required by this application.
This application is very simple and is useful if you want to make a simple address book for example. If you intend to build a fully featured spatial database, you should use django-cities.
