Guess it depends on the area. My home is new construction and I've lived here 13 months now. Its still an empty dirt field on Google Maps. So that's at least 18 months (from my move in + construction). I give people the address and they immediately look it up and say "you live in the desert?"

FWIW Bing Maps is even further behind. Some of the people they have living on dirt have lived here over two years.
