1. Define the Somerdale geography before reviewing performance
A law firm may describe its service area as Somerdale, Camden County, New Jersey or a wider market. Those labels are not interchangeable. The Census records Somerdale as a municipality in Camden County, with an estimated population of 5,581 for 2020–2024. That number describes residents in the borough; it does not describe households, legal need, prospective clients or the area your firm intends to serve. The dashboard’s value depends on making the geographic question explicit: are you reviewing Somerdale targets only, Camden County coverage, or a broader New Jersey footprint?
Recommended approach
At consultation, agree on the geographic labels and keyword groups that belong in the review. Keep Somerdale-specific observations separate from countywide or statewide observations. Ask whether location should be evaluated by ranking target, call location, landing-page source, intake statement or another documented definition. Do not use the borough population as a demand estimate.
