Welcome to OGF!
Nice start with small details. Not much more to say yet, you have mapped so little. Just keep on mapping! After you have created at least ten times more content, ask for feedback again. Preferably not here, though: The diaries are a place for discussions on current topics of general interest, and you should post here sparingly. The primary place for asking for feedback is in the forum.
I highly recommend reading the FAQ carefully, you will find many useful hints and help resources there: http://wiki.opengeofiction.net/wiki/index.php/OGF:Frequently_asked_questions)
Don’t hesitate to ask for help if you need. Happy mapping! :)

First of all, ITS SO TINY MAKE IT BIGGER.
Second, look at OSM (Openstreetmap) for inspiration. I can’t judge whether or not your town is good based on a small amount of houses.

@Ouno,
The houses you have developed in Leefside is too close to their respective roadways. You should move them back.
Currently, from a person’s view when he/she is standing on a street in Leefside, he/she would see houses built partially on the road. This is because the roadways on the map do not actually represent the width of the actual road. In other words, the roadways are not to scale. Which means to avoid buildings houses partially on the road, you have to move those houses away from the roadway.
Happy mapping!

@Lemonking New users can only post here since they don’t have a wiki account to post on the forums (likewise for banned wiki users), so they posted here instead for any opinions or anything.
I like the patience you put in for your first town, tagging all the numbers for your houses even using iD. (It will be much easier on JOSM).
Also add more natural features and stuff. It looks very empty on the surroundings. Also add a river, or a lake etc.

@Ouno,
It’s an excellent starting, but respectively speaking, like TCC said, the houses are too close to the road and you made the fence an area, not a line. Otherwise, Leefside is really good because of the location and how some stuff are not perfect, which OGF Wiki states that there is always something missing in a city… Again, excellent work!
