The Google Maps search divides your area into smaller circles to get more results, with a limit of 20 per search area. [1]
If your proximity radius isn't working well, try adjusting your search to focus on specific locations with business density rather than covering areas like oceans, mountains, or rural zones that might return empty results.
You can also manually drag the map pin and zoom in/out to refine the coverage area for better targeting. [2]
