IP geolocation accuracy can vary and it depends on the quality of the geo IP data provider.
A good IP geolocation data provider will have accuracies in the following range:
Country: 99%+
State/Region: 85%+
City: 70%+
Note that IP geolocation accuracies are lower on mobile networks positioning of mobile towers.
It is always important to choose a reputable IP geolocation provider to ensure you minimize any false location detection.
We don't recommend using IP geolocation to detect visitors on a ZIP level or within a city itself.
