Broadcast TV in Blaine means buying the whole Minneapolis–St. Paul market to reach Blaine's 25,794 households. Connected TV is bought by household and ZIP code instead, so the plan can be drawn around Blaine rather than the whole market.

A $2,500 month buys roughly 117,575 to 140,850 impressions at our planner's delivery rates. Blaine has about 24,572 homes with broadband, so that budget could show the ad in every one of them about 5 times. That is more than one town needs, so a test here is normally drawn wider: Blaine's own ZIP codes plus neighbouring Coon Rapids and Maple Grove, so the money reaches new homes rather than the same ones again.

Budget a single-market test at $2,500 to $5,000 a month in media; less cannot build the frequency to judge it.

Inside Blaine, median household income runs from $90,336 in 55434 to $131,832 in 55449. One city, two different audiences.

Blaine · Anoka County

Why connected TV (CTV) works here

Blaine's 72,488 residents are only part of the picture — sports tourism, light industry and steady residential development means the reachable audience swells and contracts with the season. Who is worth reaching in July is not who, or how many, is worth reaching in February.

Connected TV reaches Blaine households in that evening window, on the streaming services that replaced the cable subscription they cancelled. Broadcast cannot tell you whether a Anoka County household saw the ad. Connected TV can.
