Idea

A metric space is located if for any x and y in the metric space, and δ ε : ℚ⁺ with δ < ε, merely x and y are not in a δ-neighborhood or x and y are in an ε-neighborhood.

If x and y are at bounded distance, then this suffices to define a real number d such that for all ε : ℚ⁺, d ≤ ε if and only if x and y are in an ε-neighborhood of each other.
