Locations are the top-level business records in Review Manager. A location owns projects, reviews, and widgets, and it can be connected to a Google Business Profile location.

## Fields

| Field | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| Name | Human-readable location name. Must be unique. |
| Slug | URL-safe identifier. Must be unique. |
| Address | Stored as structured JSON with line, city, state, zip, latitude, and longitude values. |
| Google place id | Google Business Profile location identifier used when importing reviews. |

## Admin Workflow

1. Open `/admin/locations`.
2. Create or edit the location.
3. Enter the address fields and coordinates.
4. If Google Business Profile is connected, select the matching GBP location.
5. Use the `Get Reviews` action to import Google reviews for that location.

## What Depends On Locations

| Feature | Dependency |
| --- | --- |
| Map widgets | Use location coordinates as the default map center. |
| Project gallery widgets | Read projects attached to the location. |
| Review feed widgets | Read reviews attached to the location. |
| Google imports | Need `google_place_id` to fetch reviews. |

<Warning>
If a widget renders with no content, check the location first. The widget must have a location, and that location must have matching projects or reviews.
