Oh wow, another city.
Here's the list, all neatly alphabetically sorted by name - a country or city, Apple don't care. Really, by the time Apple Maps matches Google Maps in feature availability the world has changed so often they'll wander What Happened To The World?
I am on apple fanboy site, so I can forgive you that, but dont fool yourself that apple is different. Why do we have google as default search engine when privacy is so important ? 😀

Because you have the power of free will and you can choose DuckDuckGo in the settings if you wish as Apple has no own search engine.
You could change it even if apple had their own search engine, they are using google because as everyone else, they care more about money than your privacy.

They care about money and Google wants a piece of this cake. But Google is no Apple service and it’s just ridiculous to compare the standard search engine with Apple’s privacy policy.

You were suggesting the Look Around feature is only available in the United States and was shown wrong. End of story. Try to be a good sport.
it's amazing how you can find them in a hamburger menu in settings if you really need it and how the original iPhone you could rearrange which icons you wanted.
Apple Maps looks great and is smooth, but in terms of usability and being able to find what you're looking for, it doesn't even come close. I keep trying it for a while and having to go back to Google Maps.
