I want only vicinity information from result in json format.

Please advise how can I filter result and display only vicinity(address) information in json format.

String sURL = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=";
sURL += objNearByServicesRequest.Latitude + "," + objNearByServicesRequest.Longitude;
sURL += "&radius=" + WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["RadiusNearBySearch"] + "&types=" + objNearByServicesRequest.Types + "&keyword=" + objNearByServicesRequest.Keyword;
sURL += "&key=" + WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["GoogleAPIKeyNearBySearch"];

String strreturn = String.Empty;

using (var client = new WebClient())
using (var stream = client.OpenRead(sURL))
using (var reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
var jObject = Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject.Parse(reader.ReadToEnd());
Console.WriteLine((string)jObject["results"][0]["vicinity"]);
}

You just need to extract the fields you are interested in, and ignore the rest.

The most likely issue is that the response is on multiple lines, but you're only reading the first line.

Either change your code to read the entire response, using ReadToEnd instead of ReadLine:

C#

using (var client = new WebClient())
using (var stream = client.OpenRead(sURL))
using (var reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
    var jObject = Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject.Parse(reader.ReadToEnd());
    Console.WriteLine((string)jObject["results"][0]["vicinity"]);
}

Or use a JsonReader to load the data:

C#

using (var client = new WebClient())
using (var stream = client.OpenRead(sURL))
using (var reader = new StreamReader(stream))
using (var json = new JsonTextReader(reader))
{
    var jObject = Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject.Load(json);
    Console.WriteLine((string)jObject["results"][0]["vicinity"]);
}
