Try this:
Go to http://tiger.census.gov/cgi-bin/mapbrowse-tbl/
Scroll down and enter precise map coordinates...or close ...
then zoom to better define your location and move it to the center of the
map field.
This is my QTH:
http://tiger.census.gov/cgi-bin/mapsurfer?infact=2&outfact=2&act=move&tlevel
=-&tvar=-&tmeth=i&mlat=&mlon=&msym=bigdot&mlabel=&murl=&lat=29.5847416&lon=-
95.1932831&wid=0.007&ht=0.007&conf=mapnew.con&map.x=221&map.y=170
Here's another:
Go to http://www.yahoo.com
Select the Maps link under the search field textbox.
Type in your street address, city, state, zip (you may only need address and
zip, I haven't tried that).
This is my QTH:
