Abstract
One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for providing search results for presentation as a function of the availability of respective providers comprised in the search results. For example, a user may perform a search for local groceries stores and stores within a 5 miles geographic radius of the user may be identified and filtered/distinguished as a function of the availability of respective stores. Such availability may be a function of whether respective stores are open or closed at the time of the search, whether respective stores are expected to be open or closed at an estimated time of arrival (e.g., based upon travel time from the user'"'"'s location at the time of the search to respective stores), and/or parking considerations (e.g., parking availability, type of parking, and/or parking cost) at respective stores.
