I googled 'among of the areas' and surprisingly there are 2,150,000,000 results! Is it a common typo or otherwise?

You misgoogled somehow. The initial hit I get for 'among of the areas' is 373,000 results, but automatically revised after duplications by Google to just 3 pages (28 results), most of which come from a real estate agency on Panglao Island, Philippines. It is a common typo on that agency's website.
