Area boundaries do not reflect official OMB definitions.
NOTE: Data refer to place of residence. Data for Puerto Rico are derived from a monthly household survey similar to the Current Population Survey. Area definitions are based
on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 10–02, dated December 1, 2009, and are available on the BLS Web site at www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. Areas in the six New
England states are Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more states.
They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles. Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, Iowa-Ill., is the exception in that it is listed under Illinois for operational reasons.
