Hi @EdHixson 

The Near Me Widget or experience builder does not have this functionality, as mentioned in the below extract from the Near Me Widget documentation you need to have data associated to a map widget in order to utilise the widget: 

"This widget requires connection to a Map widget. The Map widget must be connected to a data source with at least one feature layer."
