See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/#Viewports

The short of it is that you can add a 'bounds' parameter that specifies lat-lng points to hint to the geocoder that you wish to look within a particular area. An example from that page is: http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=Winnetka&bounds=34.172684,-118.604794|34.236144,-118.500938&sensor=false
