1. Start with Pelham’s actual geographic boundary
The U.S. Census Bureau records Pelham as a municipal town in Hillsborough County, New Hampshire. Its 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 14,449, with a margin of error of 34. That is population context, not proof of legal demand, search activity, competition, leads or revenue. For an ROI Dashboard review, the distinction matters: Pelham should be treated as one geographic dimension in your reporting plan, not as a substitute for measured acquisition data. Ask how locations will be named and separated when a matter involves Pelham, another Hillsborough County community or a broader New Hampshire service area.
Recommended approach
Bring the geographic labels your firm already uses in intake and matter records. Decide whether Pelham should be reviewed as a town, while Hillsborough County and New Hampshire remain separate reporting scopes. Do not combine those levels into one unexplained total.
