Define the geography before you read the numbers
A report can become misleading when “Roswell,” Chaves County and New Mexico are treated as interchangeable. The Census records Roswell city as a municipality in Chaves County. Your firm may serve people inside the city, elsewhere in the county or across New Mexico, but those are separate reporting choices. The dashboard page describes city data and service-and-city keyword targets; that makes geographic naming an important acceptance question for a Roswell firm. A ranking for a Roswell target should not silently stand in for statewide visibility, and a statewide call should not automatically be assigned to Roswell.
Recommended approach
Agree on geography labels before reviewing performance. Ask which locations appear in keyword targets, lead records and source attribution; whether city and county views can be separated; and how a matter is assigned when the caller’s location differs from the office or service area. Treat the Census population as eligibility context only, not as a forecast.
