Are you using a VPN? What app thinks you're in Texas? Where in Louisiana are you?

Is it your phone? When you open maps, does it show you in Texas? You would need to recalibrate Google's compass. Is it a website? That usually a misconfigutation in their location coding. It also could be the IP address assigned to your phone is reading as that location. Many websites read the IP address to determine your location.
