Start with a Tonawanda and Erie County measurement boundary
A local dashboard becomes difficult to interpret when the geography is vague. Tonawanda town and Erie County are not interchangeable reporting scopes, and neither should be treated as a proxy for demand. If your firm serves Tonawanda while also accepting matters elsewhere in Erie County, decide whether the dashboard should separate those areas or report them together. The population estimate for Tonawanda provides context for the town, but it cannot tell you how many people search for a lawyer, how many become prospects, or how much revenue a market may produce.
Recommended approach
Bring your intended service area to the consultation. Ask which location labels, service-and-city targets and lead classifications would make a Tonawanda report useful without presenting population as a performance forecast. Confirm how you would review a result attributed to Tonawanda separately from one associated with the wider county.
