I was trying to find an address that didn’t exist - 18 Burns Hill Road, Milford NH.

Google Map:

MapQuest Map:

The actual address was 18 Burns Road, Milford NH (See link above).

Since the address didn’t exist, both map providers interpreted my request to the best of their ability - each delivering a different address. Unfortunately, I followed the Google map, rather than MapQuest, which guessed the correct address.

‘net Lesson: It’s better to call to confirm if the map can’t deliver the same address you’re looking for.
