Location search results for USA show county instead of state. Including state in search shows no results.

Glazed opened this issue · comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. Search for a US city name like "Winchester".
  2. See four results in the USA, but can't tell which is which.

Expected behavior

The search results should show an entry for "United States, Indiana" for Winchester, Indiana, and not "United States, Randolph" which is the name of the county in which Winchester resides.

People in the US only know their own county name and maybe a few others around them. When trying to see the weather in a city they will be visiting, they will not know the county name. They will only know the state name. City names in the US are unique per state, showing the state is sufficient and better.

Actual behavior

Search results show "United States, [county].
