1. Define the market boundary before reviewing the numbers
The Census Bureau records Clinton as a municipality in Clinton County, Iowa, with a 2020–2024 ACS 5-year population estimate of 24,322 and a margin of error of 18. That figure describes Clinton city; it does not describe all of Clinton County, prove legal demand or predict leads. A dashboard review should therefore separate Clinton city from Clinton County and any other service area your firm chooses to include. It should also distinguish a location attached to a keyword from the location of a caller, a matter or a signed client. Those distinctions matter when a partner asks whether a local campaign is producing useful work.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how geographic fields are defined and displayed. Decide which places belong in your reporting scope, which practice areas apply to each place and whether a location represents search intent, caller location, office location or matter venue. Do not treat the Clinton population estimate as a forecast of calls, cases or revenue.
