TL;DR: Cadastre in the US is untidy.
(1) Boundaries through buildings are not at all uncommon. Typically,
the landowner owes some apportionment of property tax to both
jurisdictions. The people I know who live in property that lies in
multiple school districts have the choice of which

boundaries do go through buildings.

Some of the US boundary data gives "USGS DRG" as a source. This seems
to stand for "Digital Raster Graphic" files. It is my suspicion that
this raster was vectorized as part of an import process, but I have no
documentation to support that. Still, I consider it a convenient
explanation for why the
Both of those are different from the boundaries in TX GIS systems (mainly
TxDOT). The T-17 is closer than the ancient Tiger, but still slightly
different.

Yikes! In that case, I typically open the relation for the boundary, delete
the old geometry from the relation, save, check if I can remove any
unneeded ways, add the new data as tag-less ways, and then reconfigure the
inner/outer roles. This has the benefit of preserving the boundary relation
Frederik,
These boundaries are often very outdated. I don't know which TIGER vintage they
were imported from. I have been replacing them piecemeal from current TIGER as
I work, but we should probably replace them altogether and have a plan to keep
them updated. I don't think they interfere
Hi,
I've recently traced a little bit of stuff in Annetta, TX. The area I
looked at had a lot of potential for someone interested in mapping from
aerial imagery (houses, tracks, driveways, parking missing; some
driveways tagged as highway=residential etc.) and I did what I could in
the small area
