If you are doing this over a VPN connection, then don't. Your VPN provider may be in Wisconsin even though you are in Maine. If not over VPN, sometimes your ISP will assign a different network number than would be normally local to you and that radically changes your geographical reference.
Case in point, several years ago, Comcast changed my external network address to point to their physical facilities in eastern Pennsylvania. I am out in the midwest and my searches were returning information from that eastern location. I actually resorted to using my local university alumni VPN service which is located in the same city as I reside, and then the search issues for local resources worked properly.

When I do a search, the results come back for an area in Wisconsin, not for Lincoln, Maine. How do I change that?
