The biggest issue I've noticed is when listings use a local reference for the location instead of a street address or intersection: for example, a Cambridge, MA listing might refer to "Kendall", a Portland, OR listing might refer to "alphabet district".

I do think Padmapper is great, though. It's still a huge improvement over the Craigslist interface.

Ahh, gotcha. Yeah, that kind of thing is hard to do reliably, though those should show up when one removes the accuracy filter (not necessarily in the right place).

And thanks! I really do like hearing criticisms, though, since it helps me figure out where to focus next.
