1. Set the geographic question before judging a source
Tustin is recorded as a city in Orange County, California. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year estimate records 78,981 residents, with a margin of error of 61. That population fact provides geographic context only; it does not establish legal demand, search activity, competition, lead volume or revenue. Your attribution review should therefore ask a narrower question: which recorded journeys from people contacting your firm are associated with Tustin, the service requested and the eventual matter outcome?
Recommended approach
Agree on the geographic fields your firm will use before reviewing performance. Keep Tustin, Orange County and broader California service areas distinct in reports. Do not treat a Tustin visit, a Tustin address or a Tustin-related inquiry as proof that a particular channel produced a signed matter.
