Location is a specific coordinate which uses longitude and latitude. Place is not specific. For example a school, park, library etc. Region has human and physical similarities.
A location is a very specific term. It usually pinpoints where an object is by using latitude/longitude, coordinates, or sometimes by reference to an object (eg. The pencil is 4 cm Northeast from the eraser.)
However, a place is a broad description of a location and doesn't necessarily give a specific definition of where it's spatial location is.
A region is a large or small part of the Earth that has similar characteristics. Areas outside this region have different characteristics.
