Google Maps and Street view

I notice when I look on listings sometimes I can get a great street view on google of the house and literally drive around the area on this map. But not every listing has his.

Is it only available in certain areas.

Yes, I believe that it's only in certain areas. Also, beware - I don't think they update the pics often, if at all. The pic of our house is from 2006 & looks nothing like our house currently does. It looks like a dump & we did a ton of work to it back in '08 & '09.

Google has trucks that drive around. They don't go to every single street. When I look at the Street Level of my house, I only get the view from the street behind me, not the street that my house faces.

If you are in Google Maps, and drag the little man around, it will highlight which streets have Street View.

Yes,. Much of suffolk doesn't have google street view yet...esp areas where the properties are larger. Only the main roads have it in these areas.
