My apologies for a inference based on recent news plus an April 1 check of the "scoreboard" which showed your state far behind not only the national average but also the other confederate states. A more recent check indicates this gap is now mostly erased. Is that bad news? This'll teach me to try catching up to my e-mail on weekends - not only am I even more unprofessional than usual then, but quite forgetful i.e. I completely forgot that the j-to-work question is used for the formal definition of MSA's. But beyond that it does concern me a bit that the Census web site cited in other responses seems to have more "assists in" and "used by" than specific Congressional directives tied to specific Census questions. The former is something all us planner types understand, but not by most of the people we serve. (That is not intended to demean the hard work that Ed Christopher and others have put in keeping transportation visible in the long form - perhaps if I were in a larger metro area and/or CAAA non-compliant I would understand much better the needs.)
