Hi,
The way we programmed this is we wanted to leave it up to the individual to be included or not on the map and also give everyone the choice of how close to where they actually live will be shown on the map. That way everyone's privacy and comfort level is taken into account. So as you discovered in your profile you can put whatever zoom level you want for your location: Street address, city, state, zip code, province, etc...
There are actually a lot of features we haven't announced yet tied into the map now as you can see by the check mark filters for groups and events to make it easier for you to form local actual geographic groups for jam sessions and more. There is still a little more polish we were putting on this and we need to get some tutorial videos going but have at it for now.
Enjoy!
Mike
