1. Start with the Romulus service area, not a population assumption
A Romulus law firm may need to distinguish the city from the wider geography it serves. The Census record identifies Romulus as a municipality in Wayne County, Michigan; it does not establish how many people seek legal help, which matters are common, or how many inquiries a firm receives. That distinction matters when deciding which routing rules and reporting views are useful. A workflow should identify the geographic information your firm actually collects and explain what that information is used for. It should not treat a city population as a forecast.
Recommended approach
On a consultation, define whether Romulus is one service area among several, how geographic information enters an inquiry, and whether it changes assignment, eligibility review or follow-up. Keep those decisions separate from any marketing or population estimate.
