This is the output of my object. I would like to access City but It's encoded. How can I read all parameters and decode it
>>> data['City']
u'Ciri\xe8'
>>>data['City'].decode('utf-8')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe8' in position 4: ordinal not in range(128)
I want plaintext not unicode string. Thank you!

Then just print it:
>>> data = {u'City':u'Ciri\xe8'}
>>> data['City']
u'Ciri\xe8'
>>> print data['City']

If you don't print it, Python prints a safe representation of the string, indicating it is Unicode text u'', and that it contains a non-ASCII character \xe8. print attempts to display the non-ASCII character by encoding the Unicode string in the terminal encoding. It may fail if the string contains characters that aren't supported by the terminal encoding:
>>> print u'\xe8'
è
>>> print u'\x81'

In the above example, code page 437 supports Unicode character U+00E8, but not U+0081.
