My laptop was stolen and I see the location

Apple does not get involved in allegations of theft of their devices.

¿Have you filed a formal report of THEFT with the Police?

Your local police can not act without such a report, and once they have it, you can ask them more strongly to pursue the device's recovery.

Many organizations are not Project and Goal oriented, but instead PROCESS oriented, and the Police are no exception. You need to follow all their required steps, in order, before they will act.

Does Apple register stolen hardware and use the information when the new "owner" does an update for example?

No, because Apple has no way of knowing who the rightful owner is. People give away, donate or sell hardware all the time.

If the police won't help you, there's not much you can do. Do NOT go to the house yourself. There are numerous news reports of people getting badly hurt doing that.
