1. Set the geographic boundary before you read the numbers
Bedminster township is recorded as a municipal-town in Somerset County, New Jersey. The population estimate is a description of the township, not a forecast of legal demand. A dashboard should therefore distinguish Bedminster township from Somerset County and from any broader New Jersey or metropolitan reporting area your firm may serve. Without that distinction, a county-wide call may be mistaken for a Bedminster result, or a Bedminster inquiry may disappear inside a larger service area. The public ROI Dashboard description says it can show city data, rankings and leads by case type. That makes geographic definitions a central pre-purchase question: what exactly does a city, service area or campaign label mean in the view you will receive?
Recommended approach
Bring your actual service-area list to the consultation. Ask for separate definitions for Bedminster township, Somerset County and any wider territory you intentionally serve. Require each view to state whether it represents a location searched, a caller’s location, a landing-page target or another attribution rule. Do not treat the township’s population estimate as a performance benchmark.
