1. Separate Dumont geography from attribution evidence
Dumont borough is recorded in Bergen County, New Jersey. A firm may serve people in Dumont while also receiving inquiries from elsewhere in Bergen County or other areas it covers. Population describes the municipality; it does not tell you how many people search for legal help, which practice areas they need, or which channels produce qualified inquiries. Attribution should therefore preserve the geography attached to each inquiry rather than treating the borough’s population as a forecast. In a review, ask how a journey is identified when someone first visits from Dumont, returns later, and contacts the firm from another location.
Recommended approach
Define the geographic questions your firm actually needs answered: whether the inquiry is associated with a Dumont-focused page, whether the person came through another service-area page, and whether the matter is ultimately within your practice and intake criteria. Do not use the ACS population estimate as a substitute for those measurements.
