1. Start with the geographic question, not a population forecast
East Flat Rock is recorded as a CDP in Henderson County. The Census population estimate is useful for identifying the community and its geographic relationship, but it cannot tell you how many people search for a lawyer, how many firms compete for attention, or how many matters your firm could obtain. A dashboard becomes more useful when you define whether East Flat Rock is a service area, a location target, a reporting label, or one part of a broader Henderson County strategy. Bosseo’s public ROI Dashboard page describes city and case-type data, along with tracked service-and-city targets. Those labels should be agreed before you interpret a trend.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how East Flat Rock and Henderson County would be named in reporting, which geographic targets would be tracked, and whether the dashboard distinguishes a location from a practice area. Do not use the Census estimate as a lead or revenue target.
