Search for Artesia, NM gives no hit in the map database (though it definitely 
exists
in google maps).  As a result, the search results default to Tazewell County, 
Tremont, IL

sadly, this is a different problem-- we're not getting clean data from the 
provider
and it's showing up as a 'locationless' listing in our database.  Hence the 
lack of
location on the listing.

marking this as fixed for now.
