How to limit search to state on locator?

I would like to create a locator that uses the FilterSearch component and is able to limit results by state when searched. For example, searching for Arlington, VA would give only locations close to the city that are also within the state of Virginia, even if there are nearby locations in Maryland. This would apply to a search in any state.

Is there a way to filter like this on either the backend or the frontend?

Hi @Michael_Woon1
Have you checked and tried Vertical Query for achieving the same? There is filters parameter available that must help you to implement the expected solution.
