Activate Address Verification in your account
Before you can perform a radius search, your account will need to be activated to use Address Verification. You can activate it or make sure it is activated by navigating to the Subscription Settings page (Settings > Subscription Settings > General). Then scroll down the page to the click on the Address Verification, Deduplication, and Cleanup section of the page, and follow these steps:
- Click the Activate Address Verification button.
Enable automatic updates to your addresses, if desired. With this option enabled, LGL will work its way through all your existing data and update/clean/verify any unambiguous and verifiable addresses.
NOTE: Address Verification will verify only the "preferred" address for a constituent. Keep in mind, this process occurs gradually rather than all at once and can typically take 24 hours or longer to complete, depending on the amount of data in your account.
Perform your radius search
A radius search allows you to search among the addresses in your database for those that lie within the radius of a geographic region. It is possible to search the radius (up to 100 miles) of a city, state, or Zip code.
To perform the radius search, go to your Constituents tab. In the Advanced Search area at the top of the page, search on "City, State, or ZIP/Postal code". Then select the number of miles you want to search within, type the city, state, and Zip code, and click the Search button.
