Is is possible to locate and count all similar street names in one city? For example; all streets in Macau beginning with Beco...?Thanks

You can do such queries with Overpass

I created this query with the wizard, but got no results for street starting with "Beco" in Macau, China. Note that the names of the streets are always in the local language. But perhaps you are referring to another Macau ?

This is a similar query to find all streets that end on "plein" (which is the Dutch word for square), in a town called Boom in Belgium. This one does return a result

I hope that with those examples you get an idea of the query you have to write, so you can adapt the example and find the one that works for you.

Dear escada,

Thanks for your quick reply. I changed your proposed search a bit, and now it works perfectly. Thanks for your help indeed.
