Start with the geography your records actually represent
Port Lavaca is a municipality in Calhoun County, Texas. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year estimate records 11,358 residents, with a margin of error of 285. That is a population measure—not evidence of legal demand, search volume, competition, call volume, language preference, staffing need, or likely revenue. For attribution, the practical implication is narrower: your reporting should distinguish Port Lavaca from Calhoun County and from any broader Texas service area your firm chooses to serve. A location label alone cannot tell you which page, referral, advertisement, or returning visit produced an inquiry.
Recommended approach
Review whether your intake and marketing records preserve the exact geographic context you need. Decide whether Port Lavaca should be a location value, a landing-page value, an intake answer, or a combination. Do not treat the Census population estimate as a forecast. Use it only as context while deciding what geography your reports should separate.
