I basically tag notable (read: large to extremely large) subdivisions and
villages as place=hamlet. If they don't meet the criteria,
landuse=residential. Remember that place=village is mostly used for barangays.

Hi everybody,
I'm not really happy with my Subdivision name tags in Cebu City.
I'm currently using place=suburb wich seems the smallest city sub-division.
The name already appears on low zoom levels and will
clutter the map.
(The name appears on the map like barangays,
making it difficult to differentiate both.)

The lower sub-division of cities would be a locality,
but this is for An unpopulated, named place.
It doesn't seem much used also.
I used to map Subdivisions as place=subdivision.
A tag that seems to be used in the Philippines ;

Unfortunately this is not part of the official tags,
and then the name never appears on any map

Any ideas or suggestions? How do you tag (private)
subdivisions?
Regards,
Totor
