1. Start with the geographic record, not an assumption about demand
The U.S. Census Bureau records Freehold township as a municipal-town in Monmouth County, New Jersey. Its 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 35,651, with a margin of error of 26. That figure describes the township’s population; it does not establish legal demand, search activity, competition, inquiry volume, language preference or likely revenue. Attribution should therefore preserve the distinction between a Freehold inquiry, a Monmouth County inquiry and an inquiry from elsewhere in New Jersey. The useful question is not how large the place is. It is whether your records can distinguish the geographic context relevant to the matter.
Recommended approach
Agree on the geographic labels your firm actually uses, then review whether an inquiry can be evaluated alongside source, service type and outcome without treating population as a forecast.
