📍🏠 地 = ground/earth + 址 = site/location
地 means earth or ground; 址 means a site or foundation (note the 土 'earth' radical on the left). Together: the ground-site where someone or something is located — an address.
地 — earth 土 + 也 (phonetic)
地 is a semantic-phonetic compound. The left component 土 means 'earth' or 'soil' and gives the meaning, while 也 on the right hints at the pronunciation. Originally referring to the ground or land, it broadened to mean 'place,' 'region,' and 'territory.'
