file_get_contents failed to open stream

I am trying to use the google maps to geocode a location but I get this error:

 

Warning: file_get_contents(http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=New London,+Connecticut,+United States&sensor=false): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request

 

$location_request 	= "http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address={$city},+{$real_state},+{$real_country}&sensor=false";
$geocode 	        = file_get_contents($location_request);

 

What am I doing wrong?  I tried URL encoding the location request but that also didn't work.
