If you're in the EU:

Leverage the GDPR and contact Google's DPO (Data Protection Officer) to inform them about the problem. If the problem is not solved or there is no reaction, lodge a complaint with the DPA (Data Protection Authority).

Probably won’t work, since there’s legitimate interest of app users in having this information accessible. However at least in Germany private person can have a legal address different from home address: you can buy this service from a number of providers and all legal correspondence will be delivered to you without interference with your privacy.

There is a slight problem with that. It’s actually the law in the EU that your address has to be displayed
