No avg person is doing this. Get a second phone with alias accounts.

That is a good option. I am actually quite careful about what I use my phone for. I still on occasion use Google maps, but i turn location history off and I always delete previous searches.

I am aware that this does not remove them from google's database, but it does make your movements not immediately obvious.

Also i would delete browser history and log out of all social media accounts (and disable remembering usernames/passwords) and even uninstall some apps in order to make who you interact eith less immediately obvious. Once you clear the border fully you can reinstall everything at your earliest convenience.

You may want to try Organic Maps. It can probably help in 80% of situations where you use Google Maps.

I have been using Organic Maps and I have no complain.
