Is it US only? For my UK IP I got:
I don't believe hostip.info is designed to be US-only, but the data is
obviously still rather sparse. They're relying on the Internet
community to fill the databse and keep it up-to-date, which is a
challenge.
Where they don't have specific data they could query the RIPE database -
the city is in the whois data.
I looked at hostip.info a while ago and at the time it seemed like a
rather naive approach to geolocation. They have divided the whole
Internet into /24 subnets and want to put a longitude/latitude for each
of these subnets.
When I suggested that they store information for different subnet sizes,
the author replied that is was too hard... :-(
