- 2004 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs)
- 2004 Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Areas (CMSAs) and Associated Primary Metropolitan Statistical Areas (PMSAs)
This attachment provides the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) coding scheme used for NLSY79 geocode variables. The first section simply lists the name and code of each MSA. For those MSAs that are also part of a Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area, the CMSA code is provided. Users should note that New England Consolidated Metropolitan Area (NECMA) codes, not MSA codes, are used for the New England states. Although NECMA codes are not listed separately in this document, they can be easily identified because they end in "3" rather than "0." The second part of this attachment lists the code and name of each CMSA, followed by an enumeration of each of the Primary Metropolitan Statistical Areas (PMSAs) which comprise the CMSA.
Users should note that these MSA codes are taken from the classifications present in the 1994 County and City Data Book. These codes are slightly different than the standard government-assigned codes provided on the Census Bureau's website and in OMB Bulletin 98-06. The key differences between the two systems are described in the final section of this attachment. Researchers interested in obtaining more detail about the MSA classification system, including a description of the counties and/or cities comprising each MSA, should consult one of these sources.
