Points of Interest
Show what's near an address — schools, hospitals, restaurants, transit.
Point it at an address and it pulls nearby schools, hospitals, restaurants and transit from the Google Places API, with the radius you set and travel time estimates. Built for real estate listings and local directories.

The question every buyer asks.
What is nearby matters as much as the listing itself — and answering it on the page keeps people from leaving to go and find out.
- Google Places data
- Real places from the Google Places API, not a list you have to maintain yourself.
- Adjustable radius
- Set how far out to look, so a city listing and a rural one both return something sensible.
- Travel time estimates
- Show how long it takes to get there, which is what people actually want to know.
- Category filtering
- Schools, hospitals, restaurants, transit — show the categories that matter for the kind of listing it is.
- Multiple layouts
- More than one way to present the results, so it fits the template rather than dictating it.
- Results are cached
- Lookups are cached, so you are not paying Google for the same query every time someone loads the page.
One price, every feature.
There is no feature gate between the plans, only how many sites you can run it on and how long updates last.

Questions people ask first.
Do I need a Google Places API key?
Yes. The plugin queries Google Places using your own key, so the data and the billing relationship are yours rather than ours.
Will this run up a Google bill?
Results are cached, so repeat visits to the same listing do not trigger a fresh lookup. That is the main thing that keeps the cost down on a busy directory.
What kind of sites is it for?
Anywhere the surroundings sell the listing — real estate, rentals, local directories, venues. It works on any WordPress site and any post type that has an address.
