Core-Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs)
We’ve expanded our geographic analysis capabilities by adding support for Core-Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs).What are CBSAs?
CBSAs are geographic entities defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget that consist of one or more counties anchored by an urban center of at least 10,000 people, plus adjacent counties that are socioeconomically tied to the urban center. They are categorized into Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) and Micropolitan Statistical Areas.Why CBSAs Matter
CBSAs provide a more accurate representation of economic and social interactions than traditional geographic units like cities, zip codes, or counties.New CBSA Fields in Reports:
