I would also have problems with appointing the "best" city for
a commercial match. For us (in Belgium), Belgium (the country)
would be a far better match than any city (and why not use
"state"or US based business ?).
So my suggestion is to replace "close big city" with
"description of your region" (and than everyone can choose
if that is "Ottawa" or "Northern California" or "Leuven"
or "Europe").
