TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2012, Series Information File for the Economic Census Metropolitan Statistical Area/Micropolitan Statistical Area (CBSA) National Shapefile
Metropolitan and Micropolitan Statistical Areas are together termed Core Based
Statistical Areas (CBSAs) and are defined by the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) and consist of the county or counties or equivalent entities associated with at
least one urban core (urbanized area or urban cluster) of at least 10,000 population,
plus adjacent counties having a high degree of social and economic integration with
the core as measured through commuting ties with the counties containing the core.
Categories of CBSAs are: Metropolitan Statistical Areas, based on urbanized areas of
50,000 or more population; and Micropolitan Statistical Areas, based on urban
clusters of at least 10,000 population but less than 50,000 population. Economic
Census CBSAs are similar to current CBSAs, which are those that the OMB announced and
published in February 2013.
