How Can I Use the Location Filter Efficiently?

For instance, Twitter users can write "USA", "US" or "The US". Users may also write city names without countries, in short or long forms like "New York, NY", "NYC", "NY", "Trenton, NJ", "Paris", "London" etc. Even some typos are possible, like "Newyork" instead of "New York". Some users even write "my sweet home".

The Location filter matches accounts whose location field contains the text you enter. So a search for "New York" will not find accounts that wrote "NYC". Think from the users' perspective, since location data on Twitter is not a drop-down selection and users can write whatever they want.

If you didn't get the result you expected on Live X Account Search, change the text in the location field. You can also combine different spellings with logical operators, for example New York or NYC. Learn more about search operators.

On any follower or following list, you can also open Filter Options in the Grid and use the Location filter in the same way. Filters apply to the whole list, not only the current page.
