1. Start with Milford’s actual service area, not a population assumption
Milford is recorded as a municipal town in Hillsborough County, New Hampshire. The 2020–2024 American Community Survey five-year population estimate is 16,337, with a margin of error of 37. That is geographic and population context only. It does not establish legal demand, search volume, competition, inquiry volume, case value or revenue. For attribution, the practical question is narrower: which geographic areas, services and channels are associated with the inquiries your firm actually receives?
Recommended approach
Use Milford and the rest of your stated service area as fields to review in consultation and reporting. Do not treat the town’s population as a forecast. Decide which locations and practice areas matter to the firm, then determine whether the available journey and intake records can distinguish those matters clearly.
