Do websites like financial sites(banking websites) check the exact location ppl log in from? If so is that how they blacklist ip addresses ?
 
Yes, They do check just make sure it's not blacklisted else it's fine.

However, Each site security is different though.

So the location of the ip address doesn’t matter ? Like for example if the banking site I’m on was created in California in La but I connect a ip addresss to Washington DC. They won’t blacklist the ip address ?

Not necessarily, because I always turn off location services when using banking apps, regardless of whether they request it, and I can still continue to make transactions without any issues.
 
I know bank of america can be a pain just because of cookies I think, any new computer or browser triggers passcode check.
