1. Start with Algonquin’s actual service area
Algonquin is recorded as a municipality in Illinois. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year estimate records 30,067 residents, with a margin of error of 51, and identifies relationships with Kane County and McHenry County. That is geographic context, not evidence of legal demand, competition, calls, cases or revenue. For a firm serving Algonquin, the dashboard discussion should therefore begin with scope: which Algonquin targets matter, whether county-level coverage belongs in the same view, and how the firm distinguishes a local inquiry from a broader Illinois inquiry.
Recommended approach
Bring your preferred service-area definitions to the review. Ask to see how city, county, practice-area and statewide targets would be named and separated. Do not accept a single geographic total if it combines Algonquin, Kane County, McHenry County and Illinois without showing what each number represents.
