[OSM-newbies] residential street vs. unclassified

[Claudius]

> I live on a street that is currently marked as "residential" in the OSM database.  However, it would better be described as mixed-use, as it has single-family houses, large apartment complexes, and commercial offices (both stand-alone buildings and low-rise office parks) along it.  There are also a couple of convenience stores.  It gets some through-traffic, but most of the traffic is people who live and/or work on my street or its side-streets.  The street is two lanes wide and winding, not designed for heavy traffic.  Should I leave it tagged as residential, or tag it as unclassified?

Does it have footways on both sides?
