Re: [CTPP] OMB Released the New Metropolitan and micropolitan areas

Hi, Nancy As far as I know, the new MSA definitions will not be applied to ACS 2012, which will be released this year. My guess is that they may be actually applied to ACS 2013, which will be out in calendar year 2014. Since MSAs are based on counties, you can always aggregate counties for the new MSA definitions.
