# GEORADIUSBYMEMBER

> Find members within a radius of another member.

<Warning>
  Prefer [`GEOSEARCH`](/docs/redis/commands/geo/geosearch) with `FROMMEMBER` and `BYRADIUS` in new code: `GEOSEARCH <key> FROMMEMBER <member> BYRADIUS <radius> (m | km | ft | mi)`. In place of `STORE` and `STOREDIST`, use [`GEOSEARCHSTORE`](/docs/redis/commands/geo/geosearchstore) with the same query.
</Warning>

Use `GEORADIUSBYMEMBER` to find the members of a geospatial index that lie within a given radius of another member.

It works exactly like [`GEORADIUS`](/docs/redis/commands/geo/georadius) except that the center is the stored position of a member instead of an explicit coordinate pair, which saves a lookup when the reference point is already in the index (a store, a driver, a landmark). The reference member itself always matches, since its distance from itself is zero, so remember to filter it out or ask for one result more than you need.

The same `WITHCOORD`, `WITHDIST`, `WITHHASH`, `COUNT`, sorting, and `STORE` or `STOREDIST` options apply.

## Syntax

```redis theme={"system"}
GEORADIUSBYMEMBER <key> <member> <radius> (m | km | ft | mi)
  [WITHCOORD]
  [WITHDIST]
  [WITHHASH]
  [COUNT <count> [ANY]]
  [ASC | DESC]
  [STORE <storekey> | STOREDIST <storedistkey>]
```

## Arguments

| Argument                                         | Required | Repeatable | Description                                                                                                                                                                                              |
| ------------------------------------------------ | -------- | ---------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `<key>`                                          | Yes      | No         | Redis key targeted by the command.                                                                                                                                                                       |
| `<member>`                                       | Yes      | No         | Member name.                                                                                                                                                                                             |
| `<radius>`                                       | Yes      | No         | Search radius, in the unit given after it.                                                                                                                                                               |
| `(m \| km \| ft \| mi)`                          | Yes      | No         | Distance unit: `m` (meters), `km` (kilometers), `ft` (feet), or `mi` (miles).                                                                                                                            |
| `WITHCOORD`                                      | No       | No         | Also return the longitude and latitude of each match.                                                                                                                                                    |
| `WITHDIST`                                       | No       | No         | Also return the distance from the center, in the requested unit.                                                                                                                                         |
| `WITHHASH`                                       | No       | No         | Also return the raw 52-bit geohash score of each match.                                                                                                                                                  |
| `COUNT <count> [ANY]`                            | No       | No         | Return at most `<count>` matches. `ANY` returns as soon as enough matches are found, instead of sorting every match first.                                                                               |
| `(ASC \| DESC)`                                  | No       | No         | Sort the matches by distance from the center: `ASC` (nearest first) or `DESC` (farthest first). Unsorted when omitted.                                                                                   |
| `(STORE <storekey> \| STOREDIST <storedistkey>)` | No       | No         | Store the matches in a sorted set instead of returning them: `STORE` scores them by geohash, so the destination stays a geospatial index, and `STOREDIST` scores them by their distance from the center. |

## Response

The reply reports the result of the operation. Error replies have the same shape in RESP2 and RESP3 and are surfaced as exceptions by the SDKs below.

| Protocol | Reply                                                                         |
| -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| RESP2    | Array of bulk-string members or member-detail arrays, or Integer when storing |
| RESP3    | Array of bulk-string members or member-detail arrays, or Integer when storing |

<Note>
  Client libraries often decode bulk strings, maps, sets, and numeric strings into language-native values. The table describes the Redis wire reply.
</Note>

## Examples

TCP examples use the TLS `REDIS_URL` from the Upstash console. REST examples use `UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL` and `UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN`.
