1. Define Orchard Homes as a service area, not a demand forecast
The 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 5,588, with a margin of error of 636. A useful evaluation should therefore ask whether your firm accepts matters from Orchard Homes, whether Missoula County is part of your intended footprint, and whether nearby places should be considered separately.
Recommended approach
Use Orchard Homes as one explicit location in a service-area review. Then identify the counties and cities your firm actually wants to serve. Bosseo’s public description says its programmatic pages can be scoped to the whole state or only the counties a firm chooses.
