1. Put Swissvale geography in the right place
The U.S. Census Bureau records Swissvale borough as a municipality in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, with a 2020–2024 ACS 5-year population estimate of 8,418 and a margin of error of 31. That is geographic and population context—not evidence of legal demand, search behavior, competition, call volume or likely case value. Attribution should therefore not treat the borough’s population as a forecast. It should help your firm distinguish the geographic context attached to an actual inquiry from assumptions made before the inquiry exists.
Recommended approach
Review whether your intake records identify the service area relevant to each matter and whether your reporting can separate Swissvale inquiries from inquiries elsewhere in Allegheny County or Pennsylvania. Decide which geographic distinctions matter to staffing, follow-up and marketing review. Keep those decisions separate from the Census population estimate.
