I have looked at some of the functions but it seems like a pretty big drag the way it is coded (buffers) to say retrieve some random city within 30 miles of another specific city. Anybody have a solution they can share?

If nobody is going to be scrutinizing your source, you can just use the Maxmind Javascript API.
Works with one line of code.

Interesting and useful but I think you misunderstood.
I live in small town A. There is another small town B next to my small town. I would like to retrieve this small town B (presumably using the Maxmind geoip city database). None of the default functions provide something like this since and since there isn't a completely obvious relationship how small town A and B are stored in the huge ass geoip city database, it's not an obvious solution.
(In reality there is a relationship in the way A and B are stored but it's a very annoying one to program, so essentially... anybody want to share their code for Maxmind... or is there another solution completely unrelated to Maxmind for this.)
