1. Define the geographic brief before news selection
The U.S. Census Bureau records South Whitehall township as a municipal-town in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania. Its 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 21,390, with a margin of error of 31. That establishes the location and its county relationship; it does not establish legal demand, search volume, competition, case volume or revenue. Bosseo’s public Legal News description says stories are matched to a firm’s practice areas and state. For your firm, that makes geographic scope a practical editorial decision: a page may need to distinguish South Whitehall, Lehigh County, a broader Pennsylvania issue or another location named in the underlying news. A South Whitehall page should not imply that every Pennsylvania event concerns local residents.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to review a geographic brief covering South Whitehall, Lehigh County and the Pennsylvania locations your firm actually serves. Decide which local references require a specific factual source, which stories should remain statewide, and when a page should not be created because the connection to your service area is weak.
