Maps does not recognize my address

I live in a building as old as the city I live in. When I set my home address in my contact card, maps sends me to a 200m distance address and keeps telling me to correct my address. So, it has not been useful to set my address.

Why does maps identify a similar address but not mine? It happens in all my devices: iPhone, iPad, MacBook, etc.

Thanks.

Apple Maps “home” address goes to wrong address After updating to iOS 16, Apple Maps has once again decided my home address is several miles from where it actually is. The address on my contact card is correct. I have deleted it, restarted the phone, and readded it several times. Resetting location services does not work. Long pressing on the correct location in Maps and adding it to my contact card does not work. Deleting and reinstalling Maps does not work. It would be nice if this stopped happening with every single new version of iOS but does anyone else have any ideas for what to try to fix this stupid recurring problem?

Apple Maps doesn't recognize my home address My address never comes up with Apple Maps but works with Google, Waze, and others. Is there a way that I can get Apple Maps to recognize my home address? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Maps is not using contact address as is for "home location". I have an issue where Maps (IOS and MacOS) is not using the full address of my contact card but only the street name, then filling the blank with whatever information it finds leading to have a correct address in the contact card (which works fine when manually entered in Maps) but a wrong Maps preview and wrong default home location in Maps. This is clearly an issue for me with Maps trying to be smart by only taking a subset of the address. Anyone else has the same issue? How to make a bug report? (it's really annoying)
