I googled to see if others are complaining, and can’t find it.

Obviously it is a Kobo bug.

Just as a wild guess, is your zip code correct, and does your five digit zip code territory extend into a city? This last would not excuse Kobo, even if it would help explain their software bug.

I’d also double-check your whole address to make sure it is recognized here:
