If you call 911 in a city away from where you live, how does it know to call the local area’s dispatch?

Question

Edit: Was informed my GPS does not actually think I am far away, something else is causing that.

(See edit above) Ive heard it’s GPS, but my phone always thinks I am in a city hundreds of miles away for some reason so just wondering more specifically how that would work?
