OP, spelling is crucial in a question like this. Do you mean:

What counties do you consider to be a part of the Bay Area?

OR

What counties do you consider to be apart from the Bay Area?


Opposite meanings. Please clarify.

Help us out, OP. Can't answer your question until you reword it. But San Benito Co. and San Joaquin Co. don't have anything to do with the Bay Area. They're not even part of the outer B-A.

I've traditionally heard it described as all the counties with shoreline on San Pablo Bay or San Francisco Bay.
So from south to north:

Santa Clara County
Alameda County
San Mateo County
San Francisco City & County
Marin County
Contra Costa County
Solano County
Sonoma County
Napa County (I could see how you could debate that it doesn't have a shoreline with San Pablo Bay for this one).

Traditionally, it's the nine-county area.
