How to search person in Facebook by Location
This wikiHow teaches you how to use Facebook to search for people who are in a specific location. For this to work, the person for whom you're searching has to have an accurate location listed on their profile. You can search for people by location using both the Facebook mobile app and the Facebook desktop site.
Open Facebook. The Facebook app icon looks like a white "f" on a dark-blue background. Facebook will open to your News Feed if you're already logged in.
If you aren't already logged in, enter your email address (or phone number) and password, then tap Log in.
Tap the search bar. It's at the top of the screen. This will bring up your device's keyboard.
Enter a person's name. Type in a person's name, then tap Search.
