Suggested Meta Ads setup in Maryland
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.
City-only audiences
Baltimore (~622,000), Columbia (~100,000) and Germantown (~86,000) are large enough to start with city targeting alone.
Radius audiences
For the 12 smaller markets, use a radius that pulls in nearby served cities, e.g. Hagerstown → Martinsburg (18 mi), Annapolis → Bowie (13 mi) and Salisbury → Cambridge (29 mi).
Statewide retargeting
One retargeting audience across all 20 Maryland markets keeps follow-up ads running even where prospecting audiences are small.
