Google Maps custom label x and y position

Another option I don't see mentioned here. You can set a CSS class for the label, then set the position using CSS. First, add className to the label:

label: {
    text: saved_label,
    color: 'black',
    fontSize: '12px',
    className: 'marker-position',
}

And for the CSS:

.marker-position {
    bottom: 6px;
    left: 0;
    position: relative;
}

Google Maps API v3 doesn't let you set MarkerLabel position, there're no x and y options.

The doc also says:

If you are using it with a custom marker, you can reposition it with the labelOrigin property in the Icon class.

As I can see you're using custom marker so maybe this is the way to go for you.

Alternatively, have a look at MarkerWithLabel. Is an extension to the default Marker object with more options available. Small demo: http://jsfiddle.net/LLd4drvx/239/.

"labelOrigin" ended up having to to be passed in since I am using a custom marker.

   numberMarkerImg = {
        url: '../images/mobile/map-marker.png',
        size: new google.maps.Size(32, 38),
        scaledSize: new google.maps.Size(32, 38),
        labelOrigin: new google.maps.Point(9, 9)
   };
