Start with Exeter’s actual service geography
Exeter borough is a municipality in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. The 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year population estimate for the borough is 5,541, with a margin of error of 21. That figure describes the municipality; it does not establish legal demand, search volume, competition, lead volume or revenue. It also does not describe every community your firm may serve. Before judging attribution, define whether your records distinguish Exeter borough from other Luzerne County locations, broader Pennsylvania coverage and any metropolitan areas relevant to your practice. A source report that says only “Pennsylvania” or “Google” may be too broad for a useful budget decision.
Recommended approach
Bring your service-area definitions to the review. Ask whether each inquiry can retain the location information your firm already collects without treating population as a forecast. The first decision is not how many leads Exeter should produce; it is which geographic labels are meaningful when you assess qualified inquiries and signed matters.
