Obviously YMMV.
I live about 1 mile from suburbs in a town called Bingley in Yorkshire, England.
I can't trust Google maps locally (though its good for local business searches), as the mapping quality is terrible.
My village and local town have roads missing, numerous public rights of way missing (over both public and private land). Major areas of trees missing. OSM is much, much better.
See the difference:

I am noticing more and more how poor Google maps is for non-drivers (such as myself recently having to stop driving), such as not being able to do walking routes over local foot bridges, OSM with OSRM or Grasshopper is fine:

- dotancohen 4y ago> OSM with OSRM or Grasshopper Is this usable on mobile? Can you tell a bit more?
- NGRhodes 4y agoSorry, I don't know. I used the OSM website for the purpose of this comparison. I use the Magic Earth app on my phone, which has proprietary route planning (using open street maps).
- dotancohen 4y agoI see, thanks.
