Would sorting by distance work or are you just looking to say something "only give me all the places in New York"? Might frange work as a filter query in that case where the distance you provide is XXX kilometers so you're effectively excluding everything over, say, 160 kilometers from your city-of-choice?
But from the documentation here: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FunctionQuery#ord I really don't think ord or rord are going to do what you want anyway.
