Definitions

MSAs (metropolitan statistical areas) are made up of whole counties (towns in New England) that have significant levels of commuting and contiguous urban areas in common. They may cross state lines, and usually include large amounts of rural land and farmland, provided the county or town as a whole qualifies.
