Navigation database for NYC doesn't include local area names
I live in NYC. We have 5 boroughs/counties, and each have their own local areas. For example, in Queens, there is
Astoria, College Point, Little Neck, etc. The navigation database doesn't include these names -- it only lists the
addresses as "New York, New York".
For example, if the postal address is "151-10 Northern Blvd, Flushing, NY", then the navigation
database will list it as "151-10 Northern Blvd, New York, New York". This makes it very difficult
to find addresses. I've only tested address in Queens County, but they are all listed like that.

That's really interesting! I never noticed, but the correct addresses & borough/city field is provided in the Acura Link app. It also seemed correct when I put in my home address yesterday. Are you on the most updated version?
