Don't know if this is your issue or not, but I've found around the Dallas/Ft. Worth area - where there are numerous little towns and cities that have been swallowed up over the years, a given street may not appear in the "right" city.

As I noted above, all my former OEM nav's (1 Ininfiti and 3 Acuras) ALL placed my town in the town next to me. Lexus finally got it right. But interestingly, FedEx, UPS and other delivery services have had hell finding me at times for the very same reason.

Given that Houston has had explosive growth over the years, and there are numerous small towns/cities immediately adjacent to it, you may very well find the missing addresses in the next town over (i.e., the post office address might be Houston, but the "map" address might be Pasadena or The Woodlands, or whatever, or vice-versa).

Henry - You are correct and I have plenty of other similar examples.

Mike - On the next occassion I will try the name of the adjacent city's even in unincorporated areas.

Thanks.
