Incorrect address displayed in Find My app

How do I correct the address for my location in the Find My app on my iPad? It was about a mile off on my home address so I changed the setting to "use this iPad" as my location. Now it gives my city with no street address.

If your iPad is not a cellular model then it has no GPS modem to give an accurate location. It instead relies on triangulation of localized WiFi signals. You only get an approximate location that can be off quite a bit.

There is no way to correct this.
