Was thinking that Google might have started to give higher PR on local parameters. So in place of calculating the importance of a page globally, it has started doing it region-wise.
IMO, this might be the next big change that Google might be testing, i.e to have higher PR sites within Geo-specific niches as well that might not be linked by million other sites, however within there niche/region/location are linked by most.
