А ещё 'неподалёку', 'недалеко', 'возле', 'подле',...

danimal, please pay attention that 'около' (and also 'возле', 'подле') is a pure preposition, whereas others can be used both as adverbs and as prepositions. In the latter case they are combined with a specific extra preposition, forming such composites:
- рядом с
- поблизости от
- неподалёку от
- недалеко от
Also, I would use 'вблизи' only as adverb, as the Serge's example demonstrates.
