1. Start with the actual New Richmond footprint
The U.S. Census Bureau records New Richmond city as a municipality in St. Croix County. Its 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 10,539, with a margin of error of 29. That is geographic context and eligibility evidence only. It does not establish search demand, competition, legal need, leads or revenue. For your firm, the useful decision is whether New Richmond belongs in a city-by-service page set and whether the surrounding footprint should be limited to St. Croix County or expanded elsewhere in Wisconsin.
Recommended approach
List the cities and counties where your firm is prepared to serve clients, then separate confirmed service areas from places you would consider testing. Do not use New Richmond’s population as a forecast. Use it to identify the municipality precisely and to prevent a vague “local” plan from mixing city, county and statewide coverage.
