(2) Mining and logging is combined with construction.
(3) Part of the area (or division) is in one or more adjacent states.
(4) All of the area is in one or more adjacent states.
(5) Data not available.

NOTE: State and area data are currently estimated from 2023 benchmark levels. When more recent benchmark data are introduced with the release of January 2025 estimates, unadjusted data from April 2023 are subject to revision. Area delineations are based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 18-03, dated April 10, 2018, and are available on the BLS website at https://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. Areas in the six New England states are Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more states. They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles. Some divisions lie in more than one state, and some, like Camden, NJ, are totally outside the states under which their metropolitan areas are listed.

(1) These 11 areas contain all of the 38 metropolitan divisions.
(2) Part of the area (or division) is in one or more adjacent states.
(3) All of the division is in one or more adjacent states.

NOTE: State and area data are currently estimated from 2023 benchmark levels. When more recent benchmark data are introduced with the release of January 2025 estimates, unadjusted data from April 2023 are subject to revision. Area delineations are based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 18-03, dated April 10, 2018, and are available on the BLS website at https://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. Areas in the six New England states are Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more states. They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles. Some divisions lie in more than one state, and some, like Camden, NJ, are totally outside the states under which their metropolitan areas are listed.

NOTE: State and area data are currently estimated from 2023 benchmark levels. When more recent benchmark data are introduced with the release of January 2025 estimates, unadjusted data from April 2023 are subject to revision. Area delineations are based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 18-03, dated April 10, 2018, and are available on the BLS website at https://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. Areas in the six New England states are Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more states. They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles. Some divisions lie in more than one state, and some, like Camden, NJ, are totally outside the states under which their metropolitan areas are listed.
