I want to use OpenStreetMap data for an ArcEngine application I'm working on, and I need the data to be stored locally. I don't want to download the entire planet.osm file, but rather by state, county, region, etc. Are there any resources where I can download OSM data by geographical region?

Portions of OSM data consisting of a specific geographic area are called Extracts. Extracts within the USA are only available by states and a few metropolitan areas. . These are often updated daily (unlike cloudmade, which hasn't updated theirs since December!) If you want something more specific like a county or a municipal boundary), you can download the appropriate state extract and then use a tool like osmosis to filter out all data within a specific area to create your own 'extract'. 3: http://metro.teczno.com/ and http://download.bbbike.org/osm/bbbike/ |

I found that CloudMade's downloads site suits my needs for downloading regional data. Their site offers downloads of entire continents; sections of continents (such as Middle Africa); and states, provinces and other sorts of smaller regions for most countries. I did find, however, that CloudMade does not currently serve single US county downloads. |
