Google Integrates Nearby location

Title: Google integrates Nearby location in search results

The Nearby tool also gives users the option of searching a different area with the help of a "custom location"

option that requires them to input a city and state or zip code.

Google said the Nearby tool works by geography, rather than keyword, which means that results will include
surrounding areas; they won't be limited to the single town or city a user selects.

Google's addition of Nearby to its search results comes just more than a month after the company launched its "Near Me Now" feature for mobile search. That option enables users to query Google from their iPhone or Android-based device to find results around their location
