1. Define the Leeds geography before reviewing the numbers
Leeds is a municipality in Alabama with recorded relationships to Jefferson County, St. Clair County and Shelby County. A dashboard review should not collapse those different geographies into one unexplained total. Ask whether a city label means Leeds city, a county, a metropolitan area or another service territory. The population estimate describes Leeds city only; it does not establish how many people search for a legal service, contact a firm or become clients. For a firm deciding whether the dashboard is decision-ready, geographic definitions matter because a city-and-county comparison can otherwise make unlike figures appear comparable.
Recommended approach
Bring your intended service areas to the consultation and agree which geographic fields should be visible, how they will be named and which decisions each view can support. Treat any location trend as an observation to investigate, not as evidence of demand or future revenue.
