Florida maps

I live in Ocala, FL, and have found both mapquest and the Rand McNally maps you can buy at the local drug store to be subject to two problems:

(1) Both are years behind in awareness of newer roads, and streets in newer subdivisions.

(2) Both show a number of roads/streets that do not exist. I assume these are roads/streets that were at one time platted, but never built. So that great-looking shortcut winds up at a dead end in front of some county commissioner's farm, or turns into a two-rut dirt road.
