Start a pest map of the Boston–Cambridge–Newton metro and Norfolk County is one of its pieces: 396 square miles where the metro's climate lands on this county's own mix of subdivisions, older streets and open ground.
Norfolk County's pest calendar is the regional one with a local accent: four full seasons — summer ticks and carpenter ants, fall invasions, winter rodent pressure, and the work concentrates on carpenter ants first, ticks second, and house mice never far behind.
The county's vital statistics: 396 square miles (the 10th largest of 14 in Massachusetts), centred at 42.17° N, 71.18° W, and one of the 7 counties composing the Boston–Cambridge–Newton metro. Pest work here is done by metro-based providers under Massachusetts rules.
There is a useful way to locate Norfolk County in the metro's pest geography: about 28 miles south of Boston, holding roughly 11% of the metro counties' combined land area. A mid-sized county for this metro. The consequence shows up in the work itself — properties here draw their pest pressure from both directions, the metro's and the countryside's, and a provider who treats Norfolk County like the urban core, or like open country, will misjudge half the addresses in it.

Every figure here is specific to Norfolk County — Census land and position data, read against its metro. That position, 5th of 7 metro counties by land and about 28 miles south of Boston, is the frame the pest pressure on this page is read in.
Within the same metro, Strafford County (367 sq mi) lies about 78 miles to the north; Suffolk County (58 sq mi) lies about 14 miles to the northeast; Essex County (493 sq mi) lies about 36 miles to the northeast; Middlesex County (818 sq mi) lies about 24 miles to the northwest; Plymouth County (659 sq mi) lies about 26 miles to the southeast; Rockingham County (695 sq mi) lies about 57 miles to the north — and each is covered on its own county page, because a shared metro does not mean a shared pest picture.
The Worcester, MA metro centre is about 40 miles to the west; the Barnstable Town, MA metro centre is about 61 miles to the southeast; the Amherst, MA metro centre is about 77 miles to the west. Those distances are the county's real geography, and pest work respects it: providers cross metro lines on their routes every week, and an address near Norfolk County's edge can sit closer to a neighbouring metro's crews than to its own.
