Suggested Meta Ads setup for the Baltimore area
Meta location targeting supports countries, states, cities, ZIP codes and a radius around an address. Ads in Special Ad Categories (housing, employment, credit, and social issues or politics) have restricted targeting options, including a minimum 15-mile radius, so clients in those categories need their geography planned accordingly.
Ad set A: Baltimore + 15 mi
Covers Columbia; about 721,000 residents in the included cities. Broad targeting first, then interest or lookalike tests.
Ad set B: 35-mile radius
Adds Laurel, Annapolis, Greenbelt, Bowie, College Park, Westminster, Hyattsville, Takoma Park, Silver Spring, Rockville and Gaithersburg, bringing the included cities to about 1.2 million residents. Use it when ad set A’s frequency climbs.
Retargeting
Website visitors and engaged audiences from the whole 13-market area, so the smaller cities in the area still see follow-up ads.
