The area around Richmond.
Richmond in North Yorkshire is a small market town under its castle, with a cobbled market place, the gateway to Swaledale and Catterick Garrison close by. The garrison brings a steady turnover of service families who arrive without local contacts, while the dales villages rely on the town for most services. A Richmond business should state its travel range clearly, and make sure it is not confused with Richmond in London, which dominates searches for the name.
Colburn (2 miles), Leyburn (8 miles), Middleham (9 miles) and Bedale (10 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. A longer drive takes in Darlington (11 miles) and Barnard Castle (12 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Catterick Garrison, Colburn, Brompton-on-Swale and Skeeby: if you work in particular parts of Richmond, those names belong on the site.
Richmond (postcode area DL) sits about 265 miles north of Exeter.
