Athens has about 115,000 people in it and its MSA is 200,000 people. The band R.E.M. is from Athens BTW.

Lmao at port st lucie and the thought of being it in the same metro as Miami. I know it's growing and all but it's only because of people from Miami moving up there. Hell nearly all of my family has done it. Miami metro is now 1 and half hours from Orlando lol.

If Ny added Allentown, oh boy. Let me know how it ends. If this is true, the CSA is really bordering on becoming a joke.

ROFLMFAO Mickey Mouse land lost areas in it's CSA but now Miami and Orlando touch each other.

Actually sort of surprised that Tampa Bay Area didn't get anything, Sarasota, Lakeland, and Hermossos were sure bets I always thought. Guess not.

Atlanta added some place called "Athens" to it's CSA but lost that lone Alabama county (Valley micropolitan area) in the process.

If it added Athens, then that's huge....Athens is home of the University of Georgia, the flagship school so that's only be at least 150000 people or so added.

Chicago added Ottawa-Peru Micropolitan area to its CSA which means the CSA now extends almost to Iowa (Davenport, but not quite). That adds a population of about 155,000 people to the CSA bringing it (as of 2011) to close to 9.9 million and possibly over.

I thought that was interesting too. I had a thread dedicated to the countdown, but oh well. This is fascinating info.

More than Philly though?

Looks like Chicago will pass the 10 million mark this decade.

Wow, KC finally added Lawrence and St Joseph to its CSA? That adds like 230,000 people to the KC CSA so that would put KC's CSA population around 2.4 million. Lawrence is like 20 minutes from KC's suburbs. Never understood why it wasn't part of the MSA, let alone CSA. It also makes sense that St Joe is part of the KC CSA as well as it's only a half hour from the northern suburbs.
