I've seen some places where everything was tagged as track. Since those are residential areas, I replaced some with highway=residential + surface=unpaved (based on colour in the imagery). In some cases of really narrow, hardly visible streets or deep inside a residential area I've used living_street because I assume pedestrians or children playing football use them more often than cars.
