Hey, Sunshine, if you’re interested, I highly recommend contributing to OpenStreetMap if/where you can. The built-in iD editor for desktop web is phenomenal and very easy but powerful, and the third-party Vespucci app for Android on F-Droid works very well. OpenStreetMap is still missing data in relatively large cities (let alone probably out in rural areas), and that especially includes sidewalks, residential buildings, addresses, and contact information. Even just making sure the information is complete and up-to-date the next time you visit a business, park, etc. (and marking the ‘Last Checked Date’) is profoundly useful. I’d be free to answer any questions you might have!

the easiest way to contribute is by using the app streetcomplete. It’s basically like a game.
