Start with the Walpole geography you actually serve
The Census records Walpole as a municipal town in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, with a 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate of 26,388 and a margin of error of 34. That is population context, not evidence of legal demand, search volume, competition, calls, cases or revenue. For dashboard planning, the useful decision is geographic definition: should a report distinguish Walpole from other Norfolk County communities, or should it include a wider Massachusetts service area? A location label without a defined territory can make attribution and budget discussions misleading.
Recommended approach
Bring your service-area list to the review. Ask how a city or county dimension would be defined, what counts as a Walpole-related inquiry, and whether the dashboard can show the geographic distinctions your firm actually uses. Treat any local population figure as context rather than a forecast.
