Hello,

The LocationCriterion includes a Location, which has an ID that should be 
filterable.

However, keep in mind that the LocationCriterionService is fairly slow, and 
doing lookups each time you have an ID is probably going to cause your 
application to be slower than it needs to be. A better alternative would be 
to download and parse the provided CSV file from the Geographical Targeting 
page, which is kept up to date with complete information from the 
LocationCriterionService.

Regards,
Mike, AdWords API Team
