You don't have to live with that... go to www.openstreetmap.org, and add your street to the map. When I got into OSM, my locality of 80,000 people was only a few roads... I added in all of the local roads over the course of about a month. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Canada:Alberta:Strathcona_County Your area (if I'm in the right area) has some pretty good satellite imagery (except for a bit of cloud cover), but needs a bit of work on some roads, and needs a few more added. It doesn't take much to add the roads in yourself. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-19.2461009323597&lon=146.80734962225&zoom=17 Create a user account, and you can start editing right away in the browser with the Potlatch online editor!
