1. Start with the geography you actually serve
Vernon is a municipality in Wilbarger County, Texas. The 2020–2024 ACS 5-year estimate records 9,848 residents, with a margin of error of 35. That is geographic context, not evidence of legal demand, search volume, competition, calls or signed matters. Your attribution design should therefore begin with the firm’s actual service area and matter types—not with a population-based assumption. A review can ask whether inquiries associated with Vernon and Wilbarger County are distinguishable from inquiries connected to other places the firm serves, and whether those locations matter to qualification or ownership.
Recommended approach
Define the geographic labels and service-area questions your intake team already uses. Then decide which location information should be reviewed alongside source, practice area and outcome. Keep Vernon, Wilbarger County, broader Texas coverage and any other service area distinct rather than combining them into one local-demand claim.
