California
United StatesEvery month we run the same insurance searches here and record four things: who ranks, who Google's AI Overview names, who it credits as a source, and who holds the local map pack. A Google AIO appeared on 82.1% of the searches we track in California.
Near-me insurance searches return a map rather than a written answer almost every time. These are the California metros we measure.
