Location targeting around Santa Ana, CA
We serve 19 other markets within 35 miles of Santa Ana, CA. A 35-mile radius around Santa Ana reaches all of them; the farthest is Pasadena, CA, 32 miles northwest. All 20 markets are in California.
For a client with one location in Santa Ana, we’d usually start with “Presence” targeting on the 7 markets inside 15 miles (Orange, Garden Grove, Irvine, Anaheim, Costa Mesa, Fullerton and Huntington Beach) and test the outer ring (Norwalk, Long Beach, Corona, Downey, Pomona and West Covina and others) in a separate campaign or with a bid adjustment, so the farther cities can’t absorb the budget.

Suggested Google Ads setup for the Santa Ana area
Google Ads location targeting can be set by country, state, city, ZIP code or a radius around an address, and the location option can be set to people in the area only (“Presence”) instead of people who have shown interest in it. For local service clients, “Presence” plus a city list or radius built from real drive distances is usually the starting point.
Campaign 1: Santa Ana core
Presence targeting on Santa Ana, Orange, Garden Grove, Irvine, Anaheim, Costa Mesa, Fullerton and Huntington Beach (8 cities, farthest 10 mi). Exact and phrase match on the client’s core services; budget sized to this area first.
Campaign 2: outer ring
Norwalk (16 mi), Long Beach (19 mi), Corona (19 mi), Downey (20 mi), Pomona (22 mi), West Covina (23 mi), El Monte (24 mi), Torrance (28 mi), Los Angeles (30 mi), Riverside (31 mi), Inglewood (32 mi) and Pasadena (32 mi). Separate budget so the farther cities can’t take spend from the core; pause any city where the client doesn’t take jobs.
Exclusions to set
Exclude locations beyond 35 miles of Santa Ana and review the location report monthly for clicks from outside the area.
