Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs) -- Sep 2018 Vintage
.. Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) & Micropolitan Statistical Areas (MISAs)
.. CBSAs and county components

August 2019. It is likely that the OMB defined September 2018 Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs) will be the CBSA vintage used for tabulation of the Census 2020 results. The Sept. 2018 vintage CBSAs may be in use until 2022-23 when some major restructuring, and a new vintage evolves. CBSAs, or metros, are defined as one of more continguous counties. This section is focused on providing an interactive table that enables a reference and analytical view of the CBSAs and component counties. All counties are included in the table below.

  • See how 2018 vintage MSAa are used for thematic maps.
    .. Housing Price Index
  • See the main CBSAs metros section.

CBSAs are important for many reasons. These areas contain 93-percent of the U.S. population (1,916 counties of a total 3,142). Federal statistical and other data are often available for CBSAs as the lowest level of geographic disaggreation. Businesses tend to examine characteristics and trends among CBSAs. Statistical surveys are often thin enough that data can only be developed for the larger CBSAs. Understanding the geodemographic relationships is essential for wide-ranging decision-making, program management and data analytics in general.

This section provides information on the OMB defined September 2018 Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs). These CBSAs are comprised of 392 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs), 384 MSAs in the U.S. and 8 in Puerto Rico, and 546 Micropolitan Statistical Areas (MISAs), 542 in the U.S. and 4 in Puerto Rico. For those MSAs that qualify, 11 MSAs are subdivided into 31 Metropolitan Divisions (MDs).

Using the County & 2018 CBSAs: MSAs & MISAs interactive table
The following view illustrates how the interactive table below this graphic can be used to examine the compostion of a single metro. There are many other ways the table can be used. In this example, the following steps took place:
  • Click Showall Button or refresh page.
  • Click the PopCols button below the table to show only selected columns.
  • Click the Find CBSA Code to view the CBSA and component counties (counties with this CBSA code.
  • The resulting view is then sorted on population 2010 (click pop2010 header cell).
The view now shows the metro on the top row with components counties ranked in descending order.
Do this for any metro. This is the only tool that can perform these operations.
