Do you actually rank in Google Places or does Google just rotate between listings? How does that work?

You can, yes. With a GMB listing/local seo, your website can influence your ranking in Google Maps.

Google won't randomly rotate listings. Focus on relevance, prominence and optimize your GMB profile so that it helps you rank better in google

To rank in Google places/maps you need to create a business listing page first.

Google does not rotate listings randomly but rather ranks them based on relevance, distance, NAP and prominence factors. Maintaining a strong, optimized local presence can significantly improve your rankings in Google Local search results.

Google ranking is not based on rotation of lists, it's based on query relevance, distance and proximity. Optimize your GMB profile by adding correct business details, post regular updates, engage to customer interactions on reviews
