1. Start with the geographic question your firm actually needs answered
Nanakuli is a census-designated place in Honolulu County. That exact relationship matters when you define reporting: a Nanakuli view should not automatically be treated as a countywide view, a metropolitan-area view or a measure of every person or household connected with the community. The Census population estimate is context for geographic scope, not proof that residents are searching for a particular legal service. A sound dashboard discussion therefore begins with the places and service categories your firm intends to review, rather than treating population as a forecast.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how geographic labels would be defined in the proposed reporting. Decide whether your review should distinguish Nanakuli from Honolulu County and from any broader territory your firm serves. Keep the geographic definition beside every chart so partners do not mistake one place-level measure for total market demand.
