1. Start with the Kingston service area, not a population assumption
Kingston is recorded in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, with a 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate of 7,138 and a margin of error of 34. For automation planning, the practical implication is narrower: define whether your intake serves Kingston alone, the wider Luzerne County area or additional communities. Then make sure routing, service-area questions and ownership rules reflect that decision. A system should not treat a Kingston inquiry as qualified merely because the person used a local place name.
Recommended approach
Bring your actual service-area rules to the review. Decide which geographic questions belong in an intake form or call script, which inquiries require staff judgment and which locations should be routed elsewhere.
