New Jersey statistical areas
An enlargeable map of the seven
metropolitan statistical areas in New Jersey .
[1]
The
U.S.
State of New Jersey currently has nine
statistical areas that have been delineated by the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB). On March 6, 2020, the OMB delineated two
combined statistical areas and seven
metropolitan statistical areas in New Jersey .
[1] New Jersey is the most urban of the
50 U.S. states with the highest
population density of any state. Each of the
21 counties of New Jersey is located in one of the seven metropolitan statistical areas.
Statistical areas
The
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has designated more than 1,000
statistical areas for the
United States and
Puerto Rico .
[2] These statistical areas are important geographic delineations of population clusters used by the OMB, the
United States Census Bureau , planning organizations, and federal, state, and local government entities.
The OMB defines a
core-based statistical area (commonly referred to as a
CBSA ) as "a statistical geographic entity consisting of the
county or counties (or
county-equivalents ) associated with at least one core
[a] of at least 10,000 population, plus adjacent counties having a high degree of social and economic integration with the core as measured through commuting ties with the counties containing the core."
[2] The OMB further divides core-based statistical areas into
metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) that have "a population of at least 50,000" and
micropolitan statistical areas (μSAs) that have "a population of at least 10,000, but less than 50,000."
[2]
The OMB defines a
combined statistical area (CSA) as "a geographic entity consisting of two or more adjacent
core-based statistical areas with employment interchange measures
[b] of at least 15%."
[2] The
primary statistical areas (PSAs) include all
combined statistical areas and any
core-based statistical area that is not a constituent of a combined statistical area.

Notes
^ The
OMB defines a core as "a densely settled concentration of population, comprising an Urban Area (of 10,000 or more population) delineated by the
Census Bureau , around which a
core-based statistical area is delineated."
[2]
^ The
OMB defines the employment interchange measure as "the sum of the percentage of workers living in the smaller entity who work in the larger entity plus the percentage of employment in the smaller entity that is accounted for by workers who reside in the larger entity."
