Suggested Meta Ads setup for the Palatine 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: Palatine + 15 mi

    Covers Arlington Heights, Schaumburg, Des Plaines and Elgin; about 391,000 residents in the included cities. Broad targeting first, then interest or lookalike tests.

  • Ad set B: 35-mile radius

    Adds Skokie, Wheaton, Evanston, Oak Park, Downers Grove, Berwyn, Naperville, Chicago, Aurora, Bolingbrook, Oak Lawn, Orland Park and Kenosha, bringing the included cities to about 4.1 million residents. Use it when ad set A’s frequency climbs.

  • Retargeting

    Website visitors and engaged audiences from the whole 18-market area, so the smaller cities in the area still see follow-up ads.
