1. Start with Upper Providence geography, not assumptions about demand
The Census records Upper Providence as a municipal-town in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. Its 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 24,666, with a margin of error of 28. That establishes the location and a measured population estimate; it does not establish how many people seek legal help, which practice areas they need, whether they prefer video, or whether a firm needs more intake capacity. A Video Intake decision should therefore begin with the firm’s own service area and matter criteria rather than a population-based forecast.
Recommended approach
Define whether the intake is intended for Upper Providence visitors only or for a wider area the firm actually serves. During review, identify the geographic facts that make an inquiry eligible, the locations that require a different response, and the point at which a person should be directed to contact the firm another way. Keep the location rule explicit so Montgomery County geography is not confused with Pennsylvania-wide coverage or an assumed metropolitan market.
