Distinct Dropdown Results

I have Dropodown_1 (Job Type) and Dropdown_2 (Location).

Dropdown_1 has in its items - ["Drop","Install","Storm Work","Trip"]
 
A Location may appear multiple times in the data source (SP List).
I only want each Location to appear in Dropdown_2 once (Distinct).

How do I update the below formula so that the dropdown only shows
each Location once?

Dropdown_2 has in its items -
If(
   JPU_Job_Type_Dropdown.Selected.Value =  "Drop",
   Filter(colPendingDropData,colPending_Invoice_Type = "Drop",colPending_Location),
 
   JPU_Job_Type_Dropdown.Selected.Value =  "Install",
   Filter(colPendingInstallData,colPending_Invoice_Type = "Install",colPending_Location),
   
   JPU_Job_Type_Dropdown.Selected.Value =  "Storm Work",
   Filter(colPendingStormWorkData,colPending_Invoice_Type = "Storm Work",colPending_Location),
   
   JPU_Job_Type_Dropdown.Selected.Value =  "Trip",
   Filter(colPendingTripProjectData,colPending_Invoice_Type = "Trip",colPending_Location))

    I figured it out.
     
       If(
       JPU_Job_Type_Dropdown.Selected.Value =  "Drop",
       Sort(Distinct(Filter(colPendingDropData,colPending_Invoice_Type = "Drop"),colPending_Location),SortOrder.Ascending))

    I would have thought it would it would be something like this
    Sort(
       Distinct(
          Filter(
             colPendingDropData,
             colPending_Invoice_Type = JPU_Job_Type_Dropdown.Selected.Value
          ),
          colPending_Location
       ),
       Value
    )
