  Your server knows this ip. Depending on which server you have, getting the user's ip may differ.
  
  
  
  In nodejs this would be request.connection.remoteAddress , eg.
  
  
  
  However, if you don't know how to ask your server ip, you can ask some other server about it.

  What if the user uses a VPN?
  
  How do you like the percentage of false positives?
  
  It would be more correct to ask the user for geolocation explicitly.

  And using the data received from, for example, a Google API by location, pull the city, plus allow the user to select the city from here if he has defined it incorrectly
