I’m really enjoying contributing to OSM so far.
I’m learning JOSM and adding a lot of data in Alexandria VA. Mainly creating row homes and now adding streets, city and zipcode to houses.
I add house numbers via Street Complete.
I also started a next door group. Hopefully others join! There’s a lot to do.

If you have not done so already, explore JOSM’s “Presets” section. There are a lot of useful tools in “Plugins” and “Tagging Presets”. “Map Paint Styles” can be a world of difference depending on what you’re focusing on. Lastly, after a couple years of mapping with both ID and JOSM, I finally took the time to check out the “filter” plugin. Honestly, I don’t know if I edit without it anymore. Welcome and happy mapping.
