I just checked, and there's an optional country selection box you can use.

But for local results, I'd just prepend $cityname to your search query. Faster, unless you live in Llanduwhatsthattowninwales.

Ah, that would probably be Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch.

Humorous question: Could moving there be a privacy advantage? I can imagine insanely long locations break a good bunch of databases and CRMs, specially legacy ones... I would give my location to every spammer and scammer and refuse to spell it. "Oh yeah... I'm super interested in your product. But you gotta ship it to Taumatawhakatangi­hangakoauauotamatea­turipukakapikimaunga­horonukupokaiwhen­uakitanatahu. Is that ok?"

This is the xkcd with the 1III1II1 plates, it's "oh, that Welsh town with the long name".

You may add 'near Cityname, Countryname' to your query ;)

It's never even occurred to me not to do this. I wonder if that's just because I grew up on the internet before geolocation methods were widespread/good.
