1. Start with the Olivarez service boundary, not a population forecast
Your firm may serve Olivarez, the rest of Hidalgo County or a wider Texas market. Those are different geographic scopes, and the Olivarez CDP population estimate cannot establish how many people will call your office. It is useful for naming the service area accurately, but it should not be turned into a forecast of leads or cases. AI Answering therefore deserves evaluation as an operations decision: which callers should be answered, what information should be collected, and who should own the next action?
Recommended approach
Write down the exact geography your firm accepts before configuring call handling. Include whether Olivarez is one service location within Hidalgo County or part of a broader Texas intake area. Then compare the system with actual call records rather than demographic assumptions. Review missed calls by time, practice area and disposition, while keeping Olivarez and the wider service territory distinct.
