You need to know a few things about what IPs are. First of all, most ISPs rent IP addresses out to all of its customers. These IPs have a set expiration date.
So they rent out an IP to you, and by XXX amount of time, they recall it and then they give you either the same one back (renew it) or they give you a new one to use.
By knowing that alone, the only possible way that someone could find your address and location from an IP address is if someone could hack into your ISP's database, decode their files, and link your current IP to one in their computers.
No one cares enough to do that to some stranger over the internet.
