Google's local pack now has fewer businesses listed. The 7-pack is now the 3-pack.
Last night Google updated the search results you see in a query that has local intent to show three local businesses instead of seven. In the language of a local SEO expert, the 7-pack is now a 3-pack.
The local pack is not just showing fewer business listings, it is also redesigned to fit more with the mobile user interface.
This obviously will lead to fewer phone calls and sales for those businesses that appeared in the fourth position or lower. But it might lead to more business for those in the first three results.
