Metropolitan area codes: May 2014 onward

Starting May, 2014, metropolitan areas are identified using the February 28, 2013 OMB definitions. Note, however, that some metropolitan areas are identified using the earlier (June 30, 2003) definitions.

In their documentation to the codes starting May, 2014, the CPS states: "Care should be taken when tallying smaller areas, such as smaller cities, counties and metropolitan areas during the time frame of May 2014-July 2015. This is because we will be phasing in a new set of geographic areas to coincide with the phase-in of a new sample based on the results of the 2010 Census. Some smaller areas will be phasing-out or phasing-in during this time frame and estimates for such areas will fluctuate wildly during this time period and not be as accurate as they will be prior to May 2014 or after July 2015."

Additionally, some areas will need two codes to identify them in their entirety during the period May, 2014 to July, 2015. New England City and Town Area (NECTA) codes are being converted into metropolitan (CBSA) FIPS codes during this period, and so both NECTA and CBSA FIPS codes will be needed to identify them fully. The NECTA codes are all codes above 70000. So, for example, someone living in Bangor, ME, could have either NECTA code 70750 or CBSA code 12620. To fully tally all individuals in Bangor, ME, both codes (70750 and 12620) must be used. This is the same for CBSAs that changed codes between 2003 and 2013. So, for example, both codes 31080 and 31100 will be needed to fully tally the metropolitan area with Los Angeles, CA as a principal city; both codes 22520 and 22460 will be needed to fully tally the metropolitan area with Florence, AL as a principal city; both codes 42200 and 42060 will be necessary to identify the metropolitan area with Santa Barbara, CA as a principal city. Thus if you are interested in a specific metropolitan area, make sure to identify any second code that might be used to identify that area.
