The area around Stoke-on-Trent.
Stoke-on-Trent is unusual in being six towns federated into one city, and local identity attaches far more strongly to the individual town than to Stoke as a whole. A business claiming to serve "Stoke-on-Trent" reads as less local than one naming Hanley, Burslem or Longton specifically - which is a genuine and frequently missed advantage in local search here.
Stoke-upon-Trent (1 mile), Fenton (2 miles), Burslem (2 miles) and Longton (3 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Across the boundary into the next council area, Newcastle-under-Lyme (2 miles), Kidsgrove (5 miles), Biddulph (6 miles) and Madeley (7 miles) are also close. Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Hanley, Burslem, Longton, Tunstall, Fenton and Stoke: if you work in particular parts of Stoke-on-Trent, those names belong on the site.
Stoke-on-Trent (postcode area ST) sits about 169 miles north of Exeter.
