searches finding nothing

Every search stores exact coordinates (user_lat/user_lng) — not just the city string. 26% used device GPS; the rest are geocoded from the entered location. This is precise enough to assign each search to a ZIP code and feed it into the /zipdashboard as a real-user demand layer.
