1. Define the geography before reading the numbers
A law firm may serve Brooklyn, the Northeastern Connecticut Planning Region, other Connecticut communities or a wider area. Those are not interchangeable reporting labels. Bosseo’s public dashboard text describes city data, service-and-city keyword targets and city-level decision questions, but it does not establish what geographic configuration would be available for your firm. Brooklyn’s municipal-town status and recorded planning-region relationship make the boundary question especially important: decide whether a report should identify Brooklyn separately, group it with the planning region, or show both views without treating them as the same market.
Recommended approach
Ask for a written definition of each geographic field before approving reporting. Review whether a call, form or ranking can be associated with Brooklyn without implying that the Brooklyn population estimate represents demand. Require separate labels for town, planning region, Connecticut-wide coverage and any other service area your firm chooses to evaluate.
