Hey there NCooper15,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. We understand you're seeing the incorrect location when using Safari on your iPhone, and we'd be happy to look closer into what's going on.


To get started, does this issue occur when you're connected to Wi-Fi, cellular, or both? By chance do you use any VPN software on your iPhone, or on your Wi-Fi network (if connected to one)?


Also, check out the following resource under the "Improve GPS accuracy" section that may help: About privacy and Location Services in iOS and iPadOS - Apple Support


We look forward to hearing back from you.


Cheers!
