    If you have your old place set to "Home" or have your old address in contacts under "Home" or even if its in your favorite destinations, it may show up still.

    You need to clear all that if so, sync with Google again and do a re-locate to your need address, then save it as home and also home under contacts.

    Is gps turned on, is a-gps ticked? On google maps press the locate button in the top right, the one that looks like a circle. And it should get your current position.
