This sound like location services is on and that you have location based suggestions turned on.


Go to Settings -> Privacy -> Location Services -> System Services (it will be at the very bottom of the screen) -> Location-Based Suggestions.


You can also turn off other location options. Or, you can block all location by turning off Location Services (the step before System Services above.
