Apple Maps is incorrectly autocorrecting my farm’s address and directing people to a completely different property.
The farm did not have an official mailing address until spring 2025. Since then, anyone using Apple Maps for directions is being sent to a house approximately 15 minutes away. This has already caused several service providers to arrive at the wrong location.
The correct address is:
5001 West 500 South
Columbus, IN 47201
However, Apple Maps automatically changes “West” to “East” and directs users to:
5001 East 500 South
Columbus, IN 47201
I have attempted to correct this by adding the farm as a location in Apple Maps, but the problem is still occurring, and I cannot find a way to report that Apple Maps itself is changing the street direction.
This is becoming a serious issue for our property. We have invested more than $300,000 in tiny homes, utilities, and driveways as we prepare to offer short-term vacation rentals on the farm. Once we begin hosting guests, it is critical that Apple Maps direct them to the correct location.
Please help me correct this address mapping error as soon as possible. I am happy to provide documentation verifying the official address if needed.
