Location targeting around Waterbury, CT
We serve 11 other markets within 35 miles of Waterbury, CT. A 35-mile radius around Waterbury reaches all of them; the farthest is Manchester, CT, 31 miles northeast. All 12 markets are in Connecticut.
For a client with one location in Waterbury, we’d usually start with “Presence” targeting on the 3 markets inside 15 miles (Bristol, Meriden and Hamden) and test the outer ring (New Britain, New Haven, West Hartford, Hartford, Danbury and Bridgeport 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 Waterbury 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: Waterbury core
Presence targeting on Waterbury, Bristol, Meriden and Hamden (4 cities, farthest 14 mi). Exact and phrase match on the client’s core services; budget sized to this area first.
Campaign 2: outer ring
New Britain (16 mi), New Haven (18 mi), West Hartford (21 mi), Hartford (24 mi), Danbury (24 mi), Bridgeport (27 mi), Fairfield (31 mi) and Manchester (31 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 Waterbury and review the location report monthly for clicks from outside the area.
