1. Start with the geographic record, not a demand claim
Katy is recorded by the U.S. Census Bureau as a municipality in Texas. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year estimate records 25,184 residents, with a margin of error of 39. The record relates Katy to Fort Bend County, Harris County and Waller County. Those facts establish the place your firm serves; they do not establish legal demand, search volume, competition, leads or revenue. They also do not show that a particular hosting configuration will improve business results.
Recommended approach
Use Katy as a service-area requirement when reviewing the website, but make infrastructure decisions from technical evidence: current response and load measurements, error records, backup history, access controls and recovery needs. Ask whether the proposed hosting arrangement supports the site your firm actually operates, rather than treating the local population record as proof that dedicated hosting is necessary.
