 I live in Essex, United Kingdom so when I enter `Essex` into the nearby
 events meta box, I'd expect to get at least events near-ish London if
 nothing closer is available.

 However I seem to be getting results in the US. Essex is a rather large
 (one of the largest I believe) county in the UK so there should be at
 least some activity to report on nearby. Like I mentioned, it's close
 enough that results in London would be semi-appropriate.

 I'm assuming the geolocation is off somehow?
