What does Metro mean, in terms of the numbers. I assume it's not the county population but rather the city limits and some surrounding towns.

AI sez: Metropolitan population refers to the residents living within a Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), which is a geographic region typically centered around a large city and its surrounding, closely integrated counties. MSAs are defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and are based on commuting patterns and population thresholds.
