+1 - I would change those streets to residential. On another topic, some time ago we had a discussion about not mapping the urban area of the city as landuse=residential. I actually deleted a couple, especially in the state of São Paulo. Don't know if

Those are not so rare. This is very common in favelas and in some narrow residential streets. There are a number like that less than 2km from where I'm sitting now. Here are some examples: link1

Andreas, Living streets are very rare in Brazil. I think most of those streets you mentioned are guaranteed to deserve highway=residential or a higher classification instead. Indeed some people use highway=living_street with a slightly different meaning in Brazil, but this can be a bit controversia

Hello Andreas (and don't worry about timezones :-), When I have doubts about how to classify roads, I simply try to give a classification that looks to be the best and leave to any future revisor to improve it. IMHO it better to take the time to map cities that have no streets mapped, missing many

Perhaps it would be worthwhile asking the original mapper why he has chosen living_street http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/fscfagner as he may have further information not accessible from images cheers Gerald On 18 September 2014 14:16, Andreas Schmidt wrote: > Good evening, > > while mapping

Hello. (sorry for mixing up local time zones) thanks for all answers. Allright, I understand that this topic is different in Brazil. There are more living_streets than in Germay. Now I've an example: http://abload.de/image.php?img=livingstreet_or_residowp1g.png On the bottom right area of this

Good afternoon, There is no official classification for living_street in Brazil, so we use for narrow streets (less than 6m) where there is no clear separation between pedestrians and car traffic in residential areas, such as streets in favelas (slums). Best Regards, Gabriel On 18 September 2014

I myself know only about 2 examples that can be classified as living_street, that is two residential streets classified as "calcadão" in the data source. That is a residential street where cars don't have access. In my opinion, if cars have access without any specific signs identifying as such,

Good evening, while mapping in Itanhém (Bahia), I found all streets in the city, except the main state street BA-290, tagged as living_street. Those streets that were missing and I added today, have been tagged as residental by me, resulting in a city with mixed sort of streets now: http://www.ope
