Street Address Data Incorrect

There are a couple of road segments on my street that are reporting the incorrect address, showing the wrong town and zip code. I’ve tried submitting several times in order to get the information corrected and keeps coming back that “Google couldn’t verify your edit”. This is has been a rather annoying issue as there is an actual street with the same name in the town that is showing in the address data. What’s the best way to go about getting this fixed? What would really be great is if Google would purchase the road and 911 addressing data from my county. It appears that the USPS database is being used which isn’t reliable as they do not include addresses that do not receive rural delivery in my experience.

For reference, it appears to be all of the segments on Brook Street in Laurens, New York 13796 between BalanticHill Rd and Main St. with the exception of 37 Brook Street which has USPS delivery.

Hello @LavaIce
Instead of suggesting a correction to individual POIs, please use the option Send feedback → Wrong information → Click on the road segment you want to fix. Then select either the entire or part of the road. Next, select the option “other” & enter feedback about the incorrect Zip code. See the screenshot below. Maps on the desktop will be to do this activity.

However, if your contention that the data is in sync with USPS, then this type of fragmented approach will not work. The data may revert to the previous one in the next sync session.
Thus, instead of attempting to correct information on Maps, please take up with USPS for the required changes.
