1. Define the geography before judging performance
The 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 42,036, with a margin of error of 59. A dashboard review should therefore distinguish Indian Trail from Union County and from any wider service area your firm chooses to target. Ask whether a location field means the searcher’s location, the matter’s location, the page’s target, or another classification. Those definitions affect how you interpret city and case-type reports.
Recommended approach
Bring a written geography list to the consultation: Indian Trail, Union County, and any other North Carolina areas your firm intentionally serves. Ask Bosseo to show how geography is represented, filtered, and attributed, and record which geographic fields are measured rather than assumed.
