re: All "Deep South" metro areas (MSAs) ranked by 2023 population (according to U.S. Census)

Yeah, that’s weird. Especially because Greer is in Spartanburg.

Spartanburg and Greenville are way more of one continuous area than Anderson is to Greenville.
The airport is Greenville-Spartanburg.
It’s legitimately the first time I’ve seen it counted and considered separate

Dallas-Ft Worth thing, which is still considered an individual MSA

---

yeah, because that whole damn area is basically one massive city with no real start/stop point to one or the other. They all just bleed into each other.


there is a big arse lake separating NOLA from the Northshore making them very separate entities from each other.

What does Baton Rouge try to claim that they shouldn’t? Zachary central St. George definitely should be. The west side of the river Plaquemine Addis etc should be part of the MSA. If they are stretching to say st Francisville then I’d say that’s too far though that’s distance wise Covington to New Orleans

---

They do include St. Fran which is 31 miles from BR. I do agree anything outside of 30 miles seems to stretch then limit but it still meets the commuter threshold

Lol, i take back everything i said.. my family first migrated to Mandeville when i was a little kid in the year 1985, so you don’t know shite about shite .

---

Being here the last 4 years gives me a pretty good feeling how mandeville CURRENTLY IS

I can’t speak to how it was in the 80s, but you are full of shite saying people are saying they are from New Orleans right now and it feeling like a clear suburb of Nola

frick your perception and frick my perception too, the current commuter numbers are straight data, and that data supports the notion mandeville people are not spending time in Nola like before

IIRC it's all of the Florida parishes too

Um, New Orleans is 5 miles from Slidell

Mid point to mid point

It’s how distance is calculated for cities.

this is a very funny thing to be so confidently wrong about

---

You understand this isn’t an opinion correct?

Why do you think Mandeville fell out of the Nola MSA? It’s based on actual data of commuters between the two cities. It’s amazing you can be so confident and wrong calling me out for using actual data

CBSAs are delineated on the basis of a central contiguous area of relatively high population density, known as an urban area. The counties containing the core urban area are known as the "central counties" of the CBSA; these are defined as having at least 50% of their population living in urban areas of at least 10,000 in population.[8] Additional surrounding counties, known as "outlying counties", can be included in the CBSA if these counties have strong social and economic ties to the central county or counties as measured by commuting and employment. Outlying counties are included in the CBSA if 25% of the workers living in the county work in the central county or counties, or if 25% of the employment in the county is held by workers who live in the central county or counties. Adjacent CBSAs are merged into a single CBSA when the central county or counties of one CBSA qualify as an outlying county or counties to the other CBSAs.[8] One or more CBSAs may be grouped together or combined to form a larger statistical entity known as a combined statistical area (CSA) when the employment interchange measure (EIM) reaches 15% or more. CBSAs are subdivided into MSAs (formed around urban areas of at least 50,000 in population) and micropolitan statistical areas (µSAs), which are CBSAs built around an urban area of at least 10,000 in population but less than 50,000 in population. Some metropolitan areas may include multiple cities below 50,000 people, but combined have over 50,000 people.[8] Previous terms that are no longer used to describe these regions include "standard metropolitan statistical area" (SMSA) and "primary metropolitan statistical area" (PMSA).[9]

Mandeville used to be in, now it isn’t. What does that tell you?

quote:

---

Atlanta also has the highest percentage of black people moving in

Not in the city limits.

What is weird is that Marrero, Harvey, and Westwego don't count in NOLA Metro.

Well I moved here 6 years ago and you’re wrong man. I live in Covington. It is a suburb of New Orleans no matter how you perceive it. You’re wrong and sound like a dumbass…..
