These correlation methods exist, and indeed reveal a lot about you, but they have precision limits. In rural areas, the ip block might be as large as an entire municipality, or even larger. If you turn on location services, Google knows which house you are in, and even where you are inside that house from the wifi networks you give them.

But not in terms of what data they actually have access to for peoples' android phones in their homes, with full location services and GPS turned on, in IPs directly adjacent to you in the same last mile service segment. They don't share that.
