1. Start with Park Ridge’s actual geographic boundary
Park Ridge is a municipality in Cook County, Illinois. The 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimate records 38,667 residents, with a margin of error of 540. Attribution should therefore begin with the geographic choices your firm actually makes: Park Ridge alone, Cook County, the Chicago metropolitan area, or a wider Illinois service area. Mixing those levels in one report can make a local page appear to have produced an outcome that came from a broader market.
Recommended approach
Decide which geographic labels matter to your intake and marketing decisions before reviewing attribution.
