Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for processing local search results. In one aspect, a method includes receiving data specifying a set of documents ranked according to a first order based on search scores; determining a density score that is based on a number of local documents in the set of documents; determining for each local document: a proximity measure based on the geographic location of the user device and a geographic location specified for the local document and a distance factor based on the proximity measure for the local document and the density score for the set of documents; and adjusting, based at least in part on the distance factors of the local documents, a position of at least one of the local documents in the first order.
