MSAs and CBSAs

I think you're misunderstanding the definitions. CBSAs are indeed the current definition used by the OMB. CBSAs are of two types: metropolitan statistical area and micropolitan statistical area. Everything you have added is still there -- I just move text around. What is your specific concern? --Polaron | Talk 19:13, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Where do you see reference to CBSAs from OMB definitions 128.23.195.159 (talk) 19:27, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

See here. --Polaron | Talk 19:47, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

You have the U.S. Census Bureau creating there own definitions of MSAs. The ones directly from OMB are the only official ones.128.23.195.159 (talk) 19:52, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I agree. The Census Bureau just applies the definition to Census data. But then nothing in the article contradicts that. --Polaron | Talk 00:04, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

"The U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) defines a set of core based statistical areas (CBSAs) throughout the country. CBSAs are delineated on the basis of a central urban area or urban cluster—a contiguous area of relatively high population density."

Do you see how someone has created a brand new definition grouping - core based statistical areas - when OMB only states "at the core", they could have used "at the center" or "at the heart of". A lot in that paragraph needs to be cleaned up since it reads wrong.````

Please read the Federal Register that is linked in the article. They specifically use "Core Based Statistical Area". There is also a glossary at the end of that Federal Register notice. --Polaron | Talk 16:54, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

The term "Core Based Statistical Area" (CBSA) is a collective term for both metro and micro areas loosely used by Census, it isn't a definition.

North Charleston, South Carolina

The source listed that was removed when you rolled back my edit is a reliable secondary source that establishes North Charleston's annexation of portions of Berkeley and Dorchester counties. Per WP:PRIMARY, such a secondary source is preferable to tertiary sources, of which the SCIWAY website as a compendium is one. I would appreciate in the future if you would discuss things such as this either on my talk page or on the appropriate article's talk page rather than conducting a wholesale rollback, especially as you're using an anonymous account, making it difficult to ensure that I've contacted the right person. Thank you.  Cjmclark ^(Contact) 00:30, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Please see Talk:North Charleston, South Carolina for further information.  Cjmclark ^(Contact) 03:11, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

I found this map drafted by the City Planning Department which shows the city boundaries. This should be a more suitable source, so I have cited it instead. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thanks.  Cjmclark ^(Contact) 17:56, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
