title: OSMnx Difference between geometries_from_place tag highway and graph_from_place?
body: <p>I use OSMnx for my project and I need to retrieve information about roads.</p>
  <p>I know I can use osmnx.graph_from_place(place, network_type=&quot;all&quot;) to get the graph of highways of a certain type from Open Street Map. However it does not provides lots of features, only 15.</p>
  <p>I know I can use osmnx.geometries_from_place(place, tags={&quot;highway&quot;=True}) , it gives more features however it provides different result than the previous function (less rows).</p>
  <p>Using 'Etterbeek, Brussels, Belgium' as place, with graph_from_place, I get 12636 rows in my dataframe but with geometries_from_place, I get 3636</p>
  <p>So can anyone explain me what is the difference between the two functions and why they provide different results?</p>
  <p>Code :</p>
  <pre><code>import osmnx as ox
  place = 'Etterbeek, Brussels, Belgium'
  
  etterbeek_all_highway_info = ox.geometries_from_place(place, tags={&quot;highway&quot;:True})
  len(etterbeek_all_highway_info) # 3636
  
  
  street_graph = ox.graph_from_place(place, network_type='all', simplify=False)
  nodes , streets = ox.graph_to_gdfs(street_graph)
  len(streets[&quot;highway&quot;]) #12636
  </code></pre>
