Helping people with there Google My Business page there are some situations 
where the code works correctly but the town name amended to the code that 
is displayed on a listing is different than what users expect. Here is an 
example of a Google My Business listing 
<https://www.google.com/maps/place/LAER+Realty+Partners,+Kristen+Keegan,+The+Keegan+Group/@42.6654299,-71.2528767,12.17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x89e30889162e0307:0x460f8f20a04c702c!8m2!3d42.6815761!4d-71.3568177>
 
that shows "wrong town name" but correct location. It creates user 
confusion is there a good way to explain this to those that ask? Certainly, 
noway for the user to change it.

Thanks
