1. Start with a precise Wooster service-area definition
The Census records Wooster as a municipality in Wayne County and gives the city a 2020–2024 ACS 5-year population estimate of 26,971, with a margin of error of 45. A dashboard therefore should not treat “Wooster” as a substitute for a carefully defined service area. Your firm may want to distinguish Wooster, the rest of Wayne County and any other areas it serves. Those boundaries should be agreed before location, case-type or source reports are interpreted.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to review the labels and filters you would use for Wooster and Wayne County. Decide whether a report should show city, county, broader Ohio coverage or another explicitly named area. Require every geographic view to state its scope so a city observation is not mistaken for a county or statewide result.
