Why doesn't my counter value ever reach more than 1?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

I am trying to use count in my jquery search to find the total amount of matches found in total when i get results from json file after entering a name into a search bar. At the moment I am only getting 1 Matches shown after every individual result instead of the total number of matches in the search. Is there something I am missing here? Thanks



Here is the code



$(document).ready(function() {
$('#search').keyup(function() {
$('#result').html('');
var searchField = $('#search').val();
var expression = new RegExp(searchField, "i");
$.getJSON('address.json', function(data) {

$.each(data, function(key, value) {

var count = 0;

if (value.name.search(expression) != -1) {
count++;
$('#result').append('<li class="list-group-item">'
+ value.name + '</li>');
$('#result').append(count + 'Matches Shown');

}

if (searchField == "") {
$('#result').html(""); // this clears the SearchBar
return; // this makes the bar return to it's original state
}
});
});
});
});
