A Census place record with a real endpoint

Orientation

The place record

The local search should keep New Haven distinct from the wider state map (Census rank 206). I-91, I-84, and I-95 create the regional road frame, while Hartford, New Haven, Stamford provide useful comparison points (Census rank 206). In New Haven (CT), none of those labels should replace the final street address when turn-by-turn guidance is needed.

Local check

Keep nearby anchors separate

The New England context around New Haven is broad enough to include more than one sensible approach (Census rank 206). In New Haven (CT), keep Hartford, Bridgeport, and the nearby reference places available for comparison, but do not use them as substitutes for the requested destination.

Planning

Choose the approach before the turn list

Use a two-pass plan for New Haven (Census rank 206).
