1. Start with the geography your firm actually serves
Lawrence township is recorded in Mercer County, New Jersey. That relationship matters when you review a lead’s landing page, source and case type: a page aimed at Lawrence is not automatically evidence of demand across Mercer County, and a Mercer County inquiry is not automatically a Lawrence inquiry. Population should remain context rather than a proxy for search activity, calls, cases or revenue. Lead Attribution can help you examine the journeys that actually reach your firm, while your team decides which municipalities, counties and practice areas belong in the reporting view.
Recommended approach
Define the geographic labels you want to distinguish before judging a channel. Review whether an inquiry is associated with Lawrence, another Mercer County location, or a broader New Jersey service area, and avoid combining those categories when deciding where marketing evidence came from.
