Suggested Meta Ads setup for the Pittsburgh 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: Pittsburgh + 15 mi
Covers McKeesport; about 324,000 residents in the included cities. Broad targeting first, then interest or lookalike tests.
Ad set B: 35-mile radius
Adds Jeannette, Beaver Falls, Weirton and Latrobe, bringing the included cities to about 369,000 residents. Use it when ad set A’s frequency climbs.
Retargeting
Website visitors and engaged audiences from the whole 6-market area, so the smaller cities in the area still see follow-up ads.
