In order to test some mapping and geocoding functionality, I'm looking for a free data source containing a few thousand US addresses, including latitude and longitude. I need them distributed among a number of states.

Some time on Google brought up this list of 8902 Starbucks around the US: http://www.gpspassion.com/forumsen/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=67416

Try this one. It is HUD's dataset on inspection scores for multi-family dwellings providing subsidized housing. There are 20,000 addresses with lat/lon across the US.

Look at: Multifamily Physical Inspection Scores 2015
Some time ago I came across this OpenAddresses project: OpenAddresses.io. Something like 215 million addresses available, broken down I believe by US state for the US ones.
