Local keyword research challenges

I've been in the offline game for 6+ years. I've gotten pretty good at SEO using local keywords. I'm getting my customers good results. But ....

My challenge is finding reliable stats on local searches. The Google keyword tool and Word Tracker only produce results for the really big cities - dentist New York, dentist Los Angeles, etc. What if you were looking for search volumes for smaller 20K-50K cities? For "dentist tinytown" - where would you look?

And how do you determine if the city name, zip code, county name, state name or state abbreviation gets searched more.

I understand that I can throw money at AdWords and then look at impressions, but is there a faster/cheaper way?

    Hello sir ,

    May be this tool can help you. I believe that google ignores some search terms even if we searched for good terms it will tells that no searches for that term but really there is searches for that . I experienced this Several Times so waht my suggestion with this following tool u can get keywords with city names and abbrevation if you cover all those keywords it will turn it into good base keywords which will results in traffic.
