Strange local search happening that I've noticed and am wondering if anyone has seen anything like this elsewhere?
I'm in Wimbledon, which is in the London Borough of Merton. When I do a search for "keyword in Merton" the organic listings shown are for Merton here in London but the local results that Google shows are for Merton in Oxfordshire. Example link here is for "dentist in Merton" - merton dentist - Google Search - but I've tried it for accountants, solicitors, restaurants and more. Merton Oxfordshire results have the green box and Merton, London results have the red box.
I'm guessing it's something that probably happens in the US more than here, so would be interested to hear from anyone with any experience with this.
