How to get city name from latitude and longitude coordinates in Google Maps?

People also ask

How do I get a city name from geolocation?

You can use https://ip-api.io/ to get city Name. It supports IPv6.

How do I find a street name from latitude and longitude?

Use getLocality() and getCountryName() instead. @Shubh - Try this url - "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=" + latitude + ","+ longitude + "&sensor=true" . It will return Json response. You don't need to specify Locale.

Can you search Google Maps with latitude and longitude?

To search for a place, enter the latitude and longitude GPS coordinates on Google Maps. You can also find the coordinates of the places you previously found. Besides longitude and latitude, you can use plus codes to share a place without an address.


From a Geocoder object, you can call the getFromLocation(double, double, int) method. It will return a list of Address objects that have a method getLocality().

Geocoder gcd = new Geocoder(context, Locale.getDefault());
List<Address> addresses = gcd.getFromLocation(lat, lng, 1);
if (addresses.size() > 0) {
    System.out.println(addresses.get(0).getLocality());
}
else {
   // do your stuff
}

I am using this code. You can also your this for getting city and other details about a Latitude and longitude :

You can get more info from this question : Get the particular address using latitude and longitude


Try this

  List<Address> list = geoCoder.getFromLocation(location
            .getLatitude(), location.getLongitude(), 1);
    if (list != null & list.size() > 0) {
        Address address = list.get(0);
        result = address.getLocality();
        return result;

Just Use this method and pass your lat, long.

public static void getAddress(Context context, double LATITUDE, double LONGITUDE) {

//Set Address
try {
    Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(context, Locale.getDefault());
    List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, 1);
    if (addresses != null && addresses.size() > 0) {



        String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0); // If any additional address line present than only, check with max available address lines by getMaxAddressLineIndex()
        String city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();
        String state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
        String country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
        String postalCode = addresses.get(0).getPostalCode();
        String knownName = addresses.get(0).getFeatureName(); // Only if available else return NULL

        Log.d(TAG, "getAddress:  address" + address);
        Log.d(TAG, "getAddress:  city" + city);
        Log.d(TAG, "getAddress:  state" + state);
        Log.d(TAG, "getAddress:  postalCode" + postalCode);
        Log.d(TAG, "getAddress:  knownName" + knownName);

    }
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}
    return;
