1. Start with Beloit and Rock County, not an assumed market
The U.S. Census Bureau records Beloit as a municipality in Rock County, Wisconsin. Its 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 36,534, with a margin of error of 74. That is geographic and population context only. It does not establish how many people search for a lawyer, how many firms compete for a query, or how many inquiries a page could produce. For your decision, the useful question is narrower: does your firm serve Beloit, and which additional locations in Rock County or elsewhere in Wisconsin are within your real service footprint?
Recommended approach
Use Beloit city and Rock County as an eligibility check, then define the footprint from your intake policy, court coverage, consultation boundaries, and ability to represent clients. Ask Bosseo to show how a county-limited scope would differ from statewide coverage. Do not approve pages solely because a city has a particular population.
