1. Start with the geographic record, not a demand assumption
East Honolulu CDP is recorded within Honolulu County. The latest cited ACS 5-year estimate places 51,360 people in the CDP, with a margin of error of 2,103. Those are measured geographic facts, not evidence that a particular practice area is sought online or that a particular channel will produce clients. The distinction matters when you evaluate attribution: a local population count can define the market you want to examine, but it cannot tell you which visits become qualified inquiries.
Recommended approach
Use East Honolulu and Honolulu County as explicit geographic filters in your review. Then compare the firm’s own journeys, intake answers, consultations and signed-case outcomes by channel, page and matter type. Treat any conclusion about demand as something to test against records rather than something to infer from the Census.
