Welcome to the forums :slight_smile:

For a wayspot, you need to start from the key criteria - Exploration, Exercise, Criteria

Please have a look at these for understanding what makes a good wayspot.

Eligibilty https://wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/new/criteria/eligibility
Acceptance https://wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/new/criteria/acceptance
Rejection https://wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/new/criteria/rejection
Also Wayspot Criteria — Wayfarer Help Center

This road sign does not meet any of the key criteria.

Social - great place that assists with being social with others

Exercise - great place that assists with exercise

Exploration - great place to explore, that people would show to others and visit

Being somewhere where you can be social, can exercise and/or can explore is not sufficient, as this is almost everything everywhere.

Hello and Welcome,

If you would like to post the general location (DO NOT use your home address) people here will take a look.

Please Note: Residential areas can be difficult so you do need to accept that the answer could be “There is nothing here” but we will try…

Good Luck.
