  <p>If primary/secondary is more important then I would use the "Main" location type in the profile and set it to Primary in the settings. And then make sure a "secondary" Location type exists and add that one to the profile as well.</p>

Answers.Text: I definitely could do that, but CiviCRM also has a checkbox on the main contact edit screen that says Primary location for this contact and you can check that box to indicate which of their locations should be their primary location. That would be my solution, I just wish it could be exposed in a profile rather than only on the backend/backoffice section for a contact.

  What's more important for your organisation? Know that an address is primary? or that it is an home/work address?
  
  If primary/secondary is more important then I would use the "Main" location type in the profile and set it to Primary in the settings. And then make sure a "secondary" Location type exists and add that one to the profile as well.
