Why are my "local jobs" not local?

I only see "local jobs" for the San Francisco area - several of them pinned to the top. I do not live in the San Francisco area and my profile city is correct. Upwork was not able to tell my why this is happening. Anyone else have this happen? 

 

Thanks!

Hi Katy,

 

I can see that you already have an open ticket regarding this report, which was escalated to our Technical Support team. 

Our team will keep you updated regarding this directly via your existing support ticket. We appreciate your patience while our team is looking into it.

 

Edited to add:

 

We looked into it and it appears the clients set a preference for location and not a requirement. That's why these jobs are showing in your feeds.
