Use a Costa Rica UULE with the API

Send the code to /v1/google/search and you get structured results for that city. This example searches “accountant” from San Jose, the largest city in the list, with gl=cr and hl=es-419.

Request for San Jose, San Jose Province

curl -G "https://api.justserp.com/v1/google/search" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "q=accountant" \
  --data-urlencode "uule=w+CAIQICIlU2FuIEpvc2UsU2FuIEpvc2UgUHJvdmluY2UsQ29zdGEgUmljYQ==" \
  --data-urlencode "gl=cr" \
  --data-urlencode "hl=es-419"

Or pass the location name

You do not have to encode anything. The location parameter takes the canonical name and JustSERP does the rest.

Request with location

curl -G "https://api.justserp.com/v1/google/search" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "q=bakery" \
  --data-urlencode "location=San Jose,San Jose Province,Costa Rica" \
  --data-urlencode "gl=cr" \
  --data-urlencode "hl=es-419"

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your key. See the API docs for every parameter.

Need a street or neighbourhood?

These are v1 codes, built from Google's canonical city name. A v2 code uses coordinates instead, so it can point at a street or a neighbourhood. The UULE generator and decoder creates one for any coordinates.

Other countries

Canonical names from Google's public geo targets list. City list and population from GeoNames (CC BY 4.0). Only cities that match one Google location exactly are listed. Results can still differ from what a person in the city sees, because Google also personalises.
