I'm trying to map out a small town that I would like to have online for easy editing/so that I can include it in my documents regarding the campaign.
Any good, easy-to-access tools for accomplishing this?

I'm using Dungeon Painter for dungeon maps and that one free hexagon map creating program I don't remember the name of for world or region maps.

To follow up on user's suggestions there's also:
It generates random maps, but you can choose which tile set you want, and you can rotate and replace tiles to create a map you want.
You could also simply use a premade map that you've altered to taste. There are a couple of sites with excellent maps for use.
or
You can then use a free tool like paint.net to do the color. (Pic related started out as black & white map from Dysons)

Make a small amount of hot chocolet or coffee, or some similar drink. Pore it on a flat surface like a plate and let it dry.
The way it cracks (like pic related) would look like the map of a walled in old city.
This method gives your city's an organic feeling

OP literally asked for town maps and all you guys have done is give him random stuff he didn't ask for.

Try reading the OP again.
