    The title says it all.
    I'm looking to display the users city and state.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    You will need a database such as Maxmind's GeoLite City:
    http://www.maxmind.com/app/geolitecity

    As well as their API:
    http://www.maxmind.com/app/php

    When all put together with your application, you can get the City, State, Country based on the users IP address.

    One excellent integration method is into a live support system. In our case, we see:
    68.186.*.*
    duration: 2 sec
    Birmingham, AL
    United States
    ​
