I’ve been living in Hillsborough for eight years and there are no photos of the area. If you look, the blue lines (on iPad) that mark where views are available are very sparse south of 466A. Even the roads with diamond lanes have not been done.

You need to find something more worthwhile to worry about. Nobody cares about your Google map picture.

The google earth satellite views are current, I was looking at them today (it was mid 90’s and humid up north) checking out our pool and wishing I could go for a swim.

I am pretty sure you can add photos that go along with any given address.

Are you trying to sell your house? I bet it would help.

I just looked at our address and Moses was standing two houses away chipping a note onto a stone.

We're in CDD 12; DeSoto specifically. Home constructed in 2018. Our neighbor's new pool & birdcage from 2020 & the other neighbor's new landscaping from 2021 are visible in the satellite view.

Our 'hood (built 1998) has history from 1985, with the latest being November 2019.

Street View is dated July 2013.

Now there’s a disconnect, a very nasty and unfriendly post from someone who quotes a Bible verse as their signature. Go figure?

I'm worried about you, Maybelle - is that sufficiently worthwhile?

Is your inability to act appropriately on a public web site a new phenomenon, or have you always been obnoxious?

Why would google go to the expense to update street photos which they have in their system when new streets all over the world are being built every day. Come on folks let's get real.

I whole heartedly agree - life has bigger problems to be concerned about!!

Mine is eight years old. Just checked.

My side of the villages isn't available on street view other than something like 4 houses on one street and two small streets way in the northeastern corner.

That would be the entire "historic" side of the Villages.

I remember the van with the camera setups going slowly down the street. Eight years ago sounds about right. Still the same picture today.

I saw the Google Street View Camera car on 44 today in Wildwood.
