1. Define the geography before you interpret the numbers
Your firm may serve Antioch, nearby communities, or a wider Contra Costa County practice area. Those are different reporting scopes. Antioch city is recorded as a municipality in Contra Costa County, and the available population estimate applies to Antioch city—not to every household, individual, city in the county, or legal market around it. A dashboard should therefore make the selected geography explicit instead of allowing a city label to stand in for an entire service area. Ask whether a city-and-practice-area view is appropriate for your decisions, whether countywide reporting belongs in the same view, and how you will prevent the two from being confused.
Recommended approach
Begin with a written geographic definition for each report you expect to use. For example, you might decide to review Antioch city separately from a broader Contra Costa County service area; that is an illustrative reporting choice, not a claim about where demand exists. During a consultation, ask Bosseo to show how city data, case-type data and source attribution would be presented for your chosen scope.
