OpenStreetMap barely has any users in many areas. It seems likely enough that a modest amount of traction would lead to people noticing out of date information much more quickly.

be the change you want. Start fixing your area.
That's how I approach OSM: I can't fix the world, but I can keep my own local patch up to date.

Other people do other things, and that's great too.

I added all the shops and addresses once already. Seems fine to not be all over keeping them up to date if there aren't that many users.

I have been focusing on adding POIs throughout the US. Probably only a few tens of thousands so far though.
