1. Start with the geographic question: Oak Hills or wider Oregon?
The Census record identifies Oak Hills CDP and places it in Washington County. Bosseo’s public Legal News page describes monitoring local and national legal-news sources for a firm’s state and matching stories to practice areas. Those are different geographic levels. A story relevant to Oregon may not be specific to Oak Hills; a Washington County development may not concern every Oak Hills resident; and an Oak Hills reference does not establish that people are searching for legal help. Your review should therefore separate Oak Hills mentions, Washington County matters, the Portland-area context if relevant to your service area, and statewide Oregon developments rather than treating them as one audience.
Recommended approach
Ask for a proposed geographic policy before approving coverage. Decide which locations belong in headlines, which belong in explanatory text, and which stories should be excluded because the connection to your actual service area is too weak. Record the geography of each published page so later inquiry review does not confuse local visibility with qualified demand.
