General places on the map
Local results appear for people who search for businesses and places near their location. They're shown in various places across Maps and Search.
For example, if you search for 'Italian restaurant' from your mobile device, you can get local results. Google shows you nearby restaurants that you’d want to visit.
Several factors, primarily relevance, distance and prominence, influences the local results. These factors are combined to help find the best match for your search.
For example, if what you’re looking for is probably in a business that’s further away from you, Google algorithms might decide to rank it higher in local results.
