1. Start with Easton’s actual geographic relationship
The available Census record identifies Easton city as a municipality in Northampton County. It does not establish a wider Easton market, a metropolitan area, or demand from people elsewhere in Pennsylvania. That distinction matters when a news story involves a named road, court, agency, law, or incident. A page can be locally relevant without implying that every reader is an Easton resident. Conversely, a page about an event outside Easton may be useful only if the firm intentionally serves that area and the subject fits its practice.
Recommended approach
Before approving a geographic scope, write down the places the firm actually serves and the Pennsylvania subjects it is prepared to explain. Review whether a proposed page should mention Easton, Northampton County, Pennsylvania, or no local place at all. Do not use the city’s population as a substitute for a demand study.
