What Google shows

## Hillsboro searches are won on the map

* Map pack: **"best house cleaning service in Hillsboro, Oregon for a deep clean"**. Google showed a map pack and an AI Overview. Businesses without a strong profile are missing from both.
* Directories: **"best hair salon in Hillsboro, Oregon for curly hair"**. Google showed a map pack and no AI Overview. Reviews and local listings decided who got seen.
* AI Overview: **"best divorce lawyer in Hillsboro, Oregon for a high-asset divorce"**. Google showed a map pack and an AI Overview above the regular results.
* No map: **"best boutique hotel in Hillsboro, Oregon for a weekend trip"**. Google showed an AI Overview but no map pack. Travel searches run on different signals.

Most local searches here open with a map and many with an AI answer. You need to show up in both.
