1. Start with the geographic question, not the population figure
A firm may serve Hatboro alone, Hatboro and other Montgomery County communities, or a wider Pennsylvania market. Those are different editorial scopes. A page about a Pennsylvania statute may be relevant to a Hatboro client, while a story tied to another county may require different context.
Recommended approach
Define the intended geography before approving story rules. Ask whether the service should prioritize Pennsylvania-wide legal developments, Montgomery County matters, Hatboro incidents when accurately reported, or a combination. Require every proposed page to identify its actual jurisdiction and avoid implying that a borough-level fact applies to the entire county or state.
