How do I delete my OLD "Home" address in Maps?

I recently moved. I entered my new Home address in Contacts and deleted the old one, but Apple Maps continues to show (and use) the old Home address. If I tap "Home" in Apple Maps, it does have an option "Change address" but that does not seem to work. So I now have two Home addresses.


I cannot believe that Apple assumed that people would never change their Home address. So how do I remove the old Home address?


In browsing, I saw one suggestion was to turn off "Location services," but that's not something I want to do while using Maps. Changing my home address in the Contact card did not work, as I noted.


Help.

iPhone XS, iOS 13

Aha!! After changing your home address in Contacts, then you must do a hard reset: power off the iPhone, then power it back on. Apple Maps then deletes the icon for the old address.
