Adding your city or location keyword to your meta description helps you rank better for mobile searches.

Adding your city or location keyword to your meta description does not directly help you rank better for mobile searches. Meta descriptions are not a direct ranking factor for search engines. While a compelling meta description can improve click-through rates (CTR) by enticing users to click on your result, which can indirectly influence rankings, the keywords within it do not inherently boost your position. For local SEO, optimizing your Google Business Profile, ensuring your website is mobile-friendly, and incorporating location-specific keywords within your website content (not just the meta description) are more effective strategies.
