Yea, it's absolutely ridiculous and is just a childish game of one upmanship. I pine for the days when a "city" meant, you know, the actual city. I understand immediate suburbs/satellite cities adjacent to the city as important/vital extensions, but CSAs take it to ridiculous extremes.

Exactly. MSA numbers are already crazy inflated, CSA just gets absurd... Small percentages of commuters going from one far flung suburb to another in a different county... they don't even have to ever go to the core city to be counted! Urban area is my general preference.

Lol, soon CSAs won't be enough for people. They'll buy even more into that Richard Florida bull***t and D.C. will be automatically synonymous with BosWash, Atlanta with Charlanta, Chicago with Great Lakes, etc., etc. CSAs are the first step to Mega City One for these folks, actual reality be damned!
