1. Define the geographic scope before reading the numbers
North Aurora village is a municipality in Kane County, Illinois. The 2020–2024 ACS 5-year population estimate for the village is 18,696, with a margin of error of 142. That is context for naming the location in your measurement plan; it does not establish legal demand, search volume, competition, leads, cases, or revenue. A dashboard should therefore distinguish North Aurora from Kane County and from any broader service area your firm chooses to track. It should also distinguish a location attached to a keyword from the place where a caller lives or where a matter arose.
Recommended approach
Before reviewing performance, write down the exact geographic labels that matter to your firm: North Aurora, Kane County, or another area you intentionally serve. Ask how location is represented in keyword tracking, lead records, source attribution, and matter reporting. Do not treat a North Aurora ranking as proof that a North Aurora resident became a client.
