1. Set the geographic boundary before reviewing stories
Greenville is recorded as a municipality in Washington County, Mississippi. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year estimate records 28,166 residents, with a margin of error of 34. That is geographic context, not evidence of legal-news demand, search volume, competition, case volume, or revenue. A Greenville firm should therefore decide which geographic relationship belongs in its coverage: Greenville itself, Washington County, Mississippi, or another area the firm actually serves. Those choices affect which stories are relevant and how a page should describe the people who may need information. A statewide legal development may be useful to a Mississippi practice, while a local incident may be relevant only when the firm serves the affected area and can explain the legal issue responsibly.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to review proposed geographic coverage against your actual service area. Do not approve a page merely because a story occurred near Greenville. Approve it when the location, legal issue, practice area, and intended audience fit together without implying that every Greenville resident is a prospective client.
