1. Start with the McComb–Pike County boundary
The Census record identifies McComb as a municipality in Pike County. That relationship matters because a firm may want to compare a city-focused footprint with a county-focused footprint. Bosseo’s public product page says its engine can be scoped to the whole state or to counties selected by the firm. For a practice centered on McComb, the first question is therefore geographic: should the firm evaluate McComb alone, cities throughout Pike County, or a broader Mississippi service area? The population estimate for McComb should not decide that question by itself. It cannot establish how many people search for a lawyer, how many competing pages exist, or how many qualified matters could result.
Recommended approach
Define the firm’s actual service boundary before discussing page count. List the cities and counties where the firm is prepared to consult, accept matters, and explain local procedure accurately. Treat McComb and Pike County as separate geographic choices, not interchangeable labels.
