1. Start with the geography you actually serve
Moline is recorded as a municipality in Rock Island County, Illinois. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate for Moline city is 42,197, with a margin of error of 364. That is location and population context only; it does not establish legal demand, competition, search volume, leads or revenue. For your dashboard review, the important geographic question is therefore not how large Moline is. It is how your firm defines a service area and whether a location field means Moline city, Rock Island County, another community or a broader territory.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how geographic labels would be defined in the proposed reporting. Decide whether a city, county or other service area is the unit used for rankings, leads, matters and budget decisions. Do not approve a geographic comparison until the boundaries and attribution rules are written down.
