If you include Howard and Anne Arundel county as part of the D.C metro. "Which IMO you should" The Maryland side accounts for around 60% of the D.C metro. Technically KC is more evenly split if you look at it from that standpoint.
Think those 2 still belong to Bmore per the census....I think you could take half of the population of those counties and give to DC but some portions are definitely still all Bmore...giving DC all of those counties would misrepresent reality...DMV is a very evenly split metro

There are a ton of people who commute from Howard county to Silver Spring and D.C via route 29. Crofton in AAC is IMO more of a suburb of D.C than Baltimore. I think Howard and AAC belong to both metros. Hartford county clearly doesn't. Keep in mind Spotsylvania county VA is part of the D.C metro and is further away than any part of those two counties.
NE New Jersey has several million people. In percentage of metro (various definitions) it wouldn't win, but for the volume of the city that's on the other side in one state it would win easily.
The NJ population of the NYC metro would be one of the larger metros in the US all by itself
NJ has like 8 million people in either the NYC or Philly metros that are satellites of sorts
I'm assuming the Maryland side in that study includes. Montgomery county, Prince George's county, Charles county and Calvart County.
What "study"?
He said 2010 Census, which means (s)he included any MD counties that were included in DC's metro area as of 2010---not the counties "that were with Baltimore's MSA in 2010 but should have been with DC's MSA in 2010 because I said so."

Crofton is closer to D.C than Mananas and Columbia is about the same distance. If you include those two areas it's almost dead even with a razor thin edge to Maryland.
What happened to Louisville or even Chicago??? Those should have been up there before an Augusta, GA. Missing some big ones and went small townish on some in your poll
DC, KC, and perhaps Memphis which I think is unique because the metro is split between 3 states with Tennessee having the lion’s share of course.
There are a lot of people I’ve met that live in Mississippi that live outside of Memphis metro that commute to work at the Fedex hub I’ve noticed.
