Below are two different workflows to work around the behavior.
Workaround 1:
1. Create a locator view from the ArcGIS World Geocoding Service in either ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise portal.
2. In the settings, set the returned 'Preferred city name' to 'Local city name'.
3. Add the locator view to ArcGIS Pro or use it in the Map Viewer.
