1. Start with Forney’s actual service boundary
Forney is recorded as a municipality in Kaufman County, Texas. The 2020–2024 American Community Survey five-year population estimate for Forney city is 31,532, with a margin of error of 80. That figure describes the city’s population; it does not establish legal demand, search behavior, language preference, staffing needs, lead volume or revenue. For intake design, the useful local question is narrower: which people can the firm serve, and which inquiries should be reviewed when the visitor identifies Forney, another Kaufman County community, or a location outside the firm’s service area?
Recommended approach
Define the geographic questions the intake should ask without treating Forney’s population as a forecast. Decide whether location is an eligibility issue, a routing field, or simply information for the attorney’s review. Keep the firm’s stated service area precise; do not use “Forney” as a substitute for all of Kaufman County or the wider Texas market.
