Google search showing incorrect location for companies

When I do a search for companies in google, it brings up a city 400 miles away. I do not live there. How can I get it to pull up where I live????

If you're using a VPN consider this: unless you're using a true VPN tunnel, such as between you and your employer's, school's or bank's servers, they provide false security from a privacy standpoint.  Read these articles:  Pubic VPN's are anything but private and Security Risks: The Dangers of Using Free VPNs (eccu.edu).    


Additionally a new study ("Apple Offers Apps With Ties to Chinese Military”) is specifically about VPN apps in Apple’s App Store.


Just some food for thought.
