1. Define the geography before reading a local result
Port Orchard and Kitsap County are not interchangeable reporting labels. The cited Census record identifies Port Orchard city as a municipality and places it in Kitsap County. A dashboard review should therefore distinguish a Port Orchard city result from a county result, rather than combining them into one unexplained local total. The population estimate gives scale for the municipality, but it does not establish how many people search for legal services or how many become clients. Bosseo’s public ROI Dashboard text describes city data, keyword rankings and source attribution as part of its reporting model. Ask how the location attached to a keyword, call, form or matter will be defined and displayed.
Recommended approach
Request a geography convention that names the target area in plain language, preserves Port Orchard city separately from Kitsap County, and identifies any broader Washington target. Use the dashboard to inspect the selected scope; do not treat the Census population as a forecast.
