Location issue with safari on iPhone

My safari app continually brings up locations in Atlanta GA instead of Nashville TN when I search "near me". I just moved out to TN from California about a month ago and ever since the app has done this. I've tried a reset of all settings and checked my location setting multiple times but I'm stumped. Any help apperciated.

Hi there, shzoom69.
It appears that Safari on your iPhone isn't locating services near you. Instead of information for Nashville, it supplies information for Atlanta. I'm happy to help you with this.
Clear the history and cookies from Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch -- Clear out your history, cache and cookies then test.
How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch -- If clearing out Safari and resetting your iPhone's settings hasn't resolved the issue, please be sure to have a fresh backup to keep your personal information safe. In order to back up your Health data, the backup needs to be encrypted. iCloud does this automatically, but iTunes doesn't. If you'd like to use iTunes to back up your phone, refer to this article: About encrypted backups in iTunes
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch -- Even though the title of the article isn't specific to your issue, the section titled "Put your device in recovery mode and set it up again" will walk you through all the steps to reinstall the iOS software on your device. Once your phone has returned to the Home screen, test the issue once again.


Let me know how that goes and take care!
