1. Start with the geographic question, not the population number
The Census identifies Waynesboro as a municipality in Franklin County. That relationship matters when your firm decides whether coverage should speak specifically to Waynesboro, Franklin County, Pennsylvania more broadly, or another service area. It does not establish how many people search for legal information, which firms compete for those searches, or whether a news page will produce a consultation. A Waynesboro-focused firm may need a narrower editorial lens than a practice serving clients throughout Pennsylvania. The right scope depends on the matters you accept and the places where you can represent clients.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to review how Legal News would distinguish Waynesboro and Franklin County coverage from statewide stories. Decide in advance which geographic references are genuinely relevant to your practice and which would create thin or distracting pages. Treat population as context only; use actual inquiry records and consultation quality to evaluate fit.
