This is a good idea, though would be tricky to implement for all the possible permutations of government offices across the entire country.
About the only way I can think of to do this would be to get a list of all possible office types and use it to come up with a general hierarchy. Not impossible, but a bit of an undertaking.
Any ideas @mroswell?
Even alphabetizing them would've put the Council President next to the Council member. That might be the easiest approach.

Sounds like they recently updated the returned sort order. Is your issue resolved now @mroswell?
Just noticed this (while searching my email for another Derek who sent me the ProPublica API key :)
Sorry (and not just for being late to reply)... it's been long enough since the original query in 2016 that I don't remember the context.

I'm finding the order of results to be confusing
I think a more sensible order would be:
Sample address: 1000 N. Charles St, Baltimore, MD
