# LoopNet Locations

Resolves free text to LoopNet geography candidates. The search endpoint resolves the same way internally, so this is the human-facing "what places exist" surface. geography_type 2 is a city in the observed data; other types cover addresses and ZIPs. An unmatched place is a 422, not an empty list.
