Use San Marcos geography to define the intake boundary
San Marcos is recorded as a municipality in San Diego County. The 2020–2024 American Community Survey five-year estimate records 94,882 residents, with a margin of error of 68. That figure is eligibility context, not evidence of call volume, legal demand, language preference, staffing need or revenue. Your intake review should therefore begin with the matters your firm actually accepts from San Marcos, the rest of San Diego County and any other service areas you choose—not with a population-based assumption.
Recommended approach
Write down the geographic boundary your intake team uses, then test whether callers are asked where the matter arose, where a hearing or deadline is located, and whether the firm serves that jurisdiction. Keep San Marcos and San Diego County distinct in your routing rules. A caller’s city alone should not decide qualification.
