Proximity Not set

Configuration
1

Seems like this is a common issues that people are having when first setting up proximity

my config with zone listed incase that’s the problem

zone:
  - name: home
    latitude: !secret latitude_home
    longitude: !secret longitude_home
    radius: 50
    icon: mdi:home
      
proximity:
  home:
    devices:
      device_tracker.trevor
    tolerance: 5
    unit_of_measurement: mi

trevor is the friendly name of my device, I am using owntracks and that is reporting my location correctly
