(1) Effective January 2003, the boundaries for the Boulder-Longmont
and Denver PMSAs reflect the recognition of Broomfield County.
The Denver PMSA now includes all of the newly recognized
Broomfield County and the Boulder-Longmont PMSA reflects a
corresponding loss of territory. The boundary definitions for each of
these areas no longer match the official Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) definitions.
(2) This is not the official OMB definition for the St. Louis MSA.
Excluded is the part of Sullivan City in Crawford County, Mo.
NOTE: These definitions are those used for the 337 metropolitan
areas published through the Local Area Unemployment Statistics
(LAUS) program (table C-3). About 274 of these areas and other
selected jurisdictions are published through the Current Employment
Statistics (CES) program (tables B-14 and B-18).
