The only problem with Waze is it will have you make dozens of lefts and rights to save a minute.

I’m in Vill. of St. Catherine. My home is on Waze but not in Garmin. Garmin is blank for a few miles radius. I called Garmin. She asked if I would give permission to use my address and propagate all roads around it, I said of course. So when will my area show up on Garmin? She said “soon, you should see it in about 12 months.”

Google maps seems to be working for bicycle/ golf cart (somewhat) guidance.
The villages GPS or villages navigation both haven't worked for me.
House maps I haven't seen anywhere yet also.

Adding places to google maps
 
Anyone can add a new place to google maps. I have added new rec centers, new restaurants and new roads. They have an elaborate reward system for people who do this with titles like local guide level 8 and master photographer, expert reviewer, etc. They occasionally offer a discount on something they are selling and once offered a free pair of local guide google socks. I view it as a hobby. Photos I have added to locations now have 36,160,360 views. Yes! 36 million!

We found that suggesting delivery drivers use Waze as opposed to Google maps. Google took over a year to update roads in Chitty Chatty!

The Villages has repeatedly offered the layout of the areas planned but not built, including street names, house numbers, and GPS coordinates to the mapping companies. They have consistently refused to use that data in updates of their maps until their ‘mapping cars’ drive the streets and photograph the areas themselves.

The answer to your question is, as soon as the mapping companies drive the area and create their own mapping data.
