2015 Metropolitan Statistical Areas
  -- updates to 2013 metropolitan statistical area designations

New metropolitan area designations are important; they identify transitioning and growing counties reaching a certain plateau of demographic-economic well-being. In July 2015, sixteen new Micropolitan Statistical Areas (MISAs) were designated, reflecting population growth through 2014. At the same time one MISA changed status to a Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) -- Enid, OK. The five new Combined Statistical Areas (CSAs) reflect continuing urban agglomeration evolvement as contiguous metros grow and join adjacent metros. How will these new metros change by 2020? 2060? relate to others? .. insights using our projections and modeling tools.

Core-Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs -- the collective set of MSAs and MISAs) designations are updated from periodically based on changing demographic-economic conditions. The July 2015 CBSA designations, summarized here, update the previous February 2013 CBSA designations. CBSAs are comprised of one or more contiguous counties. CBSA designations are made by OMB based primarily on Census Bureau data.

There are now 945 CBSAs (MSAs and MISAs) in the U.S. and Puerto Rico.
  • 389 MSAs (382 in the United States and 7 in Puerto Rico).
      .. 11 MSAs contain a total of 31 Metropolitan Divisions (MDs).
  • 556 MISAs (551 in the U.S. and 5 in Puerto Rico).
174 Combined Statistical Areas (CSAs) now exist with a total of 537 component MSAs and MISAs.

Updates provided here are based on 2010 standards for delineating MSAs and MISAs. The updates reflect changes based on Census Bureau population estimates for July 1, 2012 and July 1, 2013.

The 2015 changes include:
  • designation of a new metropolitan statistical area
  • sixteen new micropolitan statistical areas
  • five new combined statistical areas
  • new components of existing combined statistical areas
  • other changes
