Hi.
I would normally tag such roads (minor roads in rural areas) as
unclassified rather than residential.
I suspect there is not a lot of difference between residential and
unclassified though.

Hi everyone, I was reviewing highway tags in south-central NSW
(initially to add in missing paved and unpaved tags) and noted that
road classification differ greatly between adjacent local gov areas.
In central Federation Shire Council, north of Mulwala and Corowa, the
bulk of rural roads are tagged as residential whereas in all
surrounding LGAs they are tagged as unclassified, as shown in this
Overpass query: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/YCa
<http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/YCa>
(the query shows 4 adjacent LGAs, with the Federation Shire in
the lower centre).
This is a rural cropping /grazing region, not a densely settled
irrigation area. Is it appropriate to re-tag the rural "residential"
roads as "unclassified'' for consistency, after inspecting each on
satellite images, leaving residential roads in and around small towns
only? Thanks for your help, Ian
