1. Put Edgewater geography in the right reporting frame
The 2020–2024 ACS 5-year population estimate is 23,627, with a margin of error of 30. A useful dashboard therefore should not blur Edgewater with Volusia County, other cities or the wider Florida market. Bosseo’s published product information also describes separating Miami, Miami-Dade and neighboring city cohorts. For an Edgewater firm, the decision is to confirm which cohorts belong in the firm’s measurement plan rather than assume that every nearby or statewide signal represents Edgewater.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show the geographic labels and cohort definitions that would apply to your firm. Keep Edgewater and Volusia County separate where the underlying data permits, and mark any unavailable geographic detail as unavailable rather than estimating it.
