Start with Dallas coverage, not a generic total
Dallas is recorded as a municipality. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year estimate records 1,307,930 people in Dallas city, with a margin of error of 153. That figure describes the city population only. It does not establish legal demand, search volume, competition, leads, cases or revenue. The same record identifies relationships with Collin, Dallas, Denton, Kaufman and Rockwall counties. Those geographic relationships matter when you decide whether a dashboard should distinguish Dallas city from county-oriented service coverage. A single total can conceal which geography a call, form or tracked keyword refers to.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how geography is represented in the dashboard and agree on the labels your firm will use. Review whether a Dallas-city inquiry can be separated from an inquiry associated with one of the listed counties, and whether the distinction is available for the metrics you intend to review. Treat the Census population as context for defining the market boundary, not as evidence that a practice area will generate business.
