I agree. Displaying the nearest major city would be much more believable rather than displaying any location within 100 miles or database location names that nobody would put as their location.

For example Las Vegas. 100% of results should say "Las Vegas" not 50% or less and the rest showing as Henderson, Boulder City, Spring Valley, Sunrise Manor or some "... historic site"
