Okay.
The thing is here, I'm not a priority case with the police since I live in Murderville, USA.
Is there anything I can do on my own?

It's a theft, police should act. If you provide them IP address and to which ISP it belongs you did half of the job for them. ISP won't give you the details, but for a police inquiry in criminal case they will

If it is more or less static you can expect they are propably using it from some house where they have a wlan AP and t is connected to either a wireless or wired broadband.
You can get the provider by digging around a bit, and if it is a wired connection you may be able to sweet-talk the operator into giving you street address, after all that's not classified info.
If it's a wireless broadband, you might not get the subscribes address so easily.

Why it is possible with the OP's device is because he had active pandora account and the thief is so stupid he's been using the account to listen to music. it was possible for OP to ask from pandora what IP has been used.
In your case, unless the thief uses something like that, it is absolutely impossible to track them with IP, as you don't know the IP they have
However, you know the IMEI of the devices, so in theory you could get police to find out from operator who is usein the evice with that IMEI. (but you say police will not help...
)
I had my tablet stolen from my home a bit over two months ago with no possible leads to where it might be.
It doesn't have GPS enabled, because I am stupid and manually turned it off.
However, the person who is using my tablet has also been using my Pandora account.
I emailed Pandora and they gave me my account history which includes timestamps and the IP address from where they are streaming their music from.
Is it possible to get an exact address from this?
Cheers.
