Google Maps has arguably gotten worse. Many times businesses that don't pay to be listed either won't show up on the map/in search or at best show up basically last. I also live in the Bay Area and sometimes I feel like the GPS routes it chooses are to avoid certain areas even though they'd surely be quicker. For instance sometimes it insists on me taking 101 around Palo Alto/MTV when traffic is just yellowish but other routes are totally clear, and 101 ends up becoming nearly stop and go when the other routes are basically still clear.
I will say google maps is superb for traveling in Japan, though.

Keep having issues with maps showing places on the other side of the city instead of the 15 places in walking distance...

- spike021 3y agoI notice it the most when I'm just trying to find a place whose name I can't quite recall, but I know where it's located. Usually hole in the wall or other lesser known spots. I'll literally zoom in as far as I can on the building or plaza where it's located and Google refuses to show it to me.
