A fieldType for a address street

Hi solR users!

I'd like to make research on my client database, in particular, i need 
to find client by their address (ex : "100 avenue des champs élysée")

Does anyone know a good fieldType to store my addresses to enable me to 
search client by address easily ?


thank you all
