Spatial match - underlying counties

Hi all. I have a home zip code for a salesman (green diamond). I have created a trade area for about 60 miles (green circle in photo). I am looking to show all of the counties within or touching that trade area. When using the spatial match tool, I'm only getting a result for the county that touches or is within that home zip code (dark red). There has to be a way to get all the counties in the remaining area - like these yellow circles - but I haven't figured it out yet, so looking for help :-)

As far as I understood your problem, your target is the Trade Area Spatial Object created by the green object.

Universe should consist of Polygons (spatial objects) represented by the counties.

Then the M anchor (output) should bring you all the records (counties) that have some part of their areas shared with your Trade Area.

Provide us a sample of your workflow (or data) and then we could have a better idea of what the issue could be.

Hi @summarizer

I'd recommend you to try the option "Target Intersects Universe" in the Spatial Match Tool.

I'm guessing this is what you're looking for, by the picture you posted.

I have tried variations of all of the types. Using the allocate input tool with counties, the spatial match tool is considering my home zip the area, not the green radius.
