Notes on Central Cities:

This list presents central cities of metropolitan statistical areas
(MSAs) and consolidated metropolitan statistical areas (CMSAs).  The list
includes 554 central cities, as designated on July 1, 1999 by the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB).  Central cities generally consist of one
or more of the largest population and employment centers of a metropolitan
area (MA).  The cities are determined by application of sections 4 and 13
of OMB's MA standards.  The  areas eligible for central city status are 
defined under City in the "Definition of Key Terms" section of the MA
standards.

Central cities of CMSAs are determined independently of the primary
metropolitan statistical areas (PMSAs) within each CMSA.  Almost all
central cities are incorporated places, with exceptions including
Honolulu, HI; Arlington, VA; Yarmouth (Barnstable County), MA; Dover
(Ocean County), NJ; and zonas urbanas in Puerto Rico.

Listed first is the MSA/CMSA title and associated Federal Information
Processing Standards (FIPS) MA codes.  Indented below each title is the name
of each central city and the state postal abbreviation.  MSA central
cities are listed by 1990 population size.  CMSA central cities are listed
by population size within each PMSA.  The numeric FIPS PMSA, state, and
entity codes associated with each central city also are listed. 

There are nine instances where only part of a city is central to an
MSA/CMSA, because part of that city extends beyond the MSA/CMSA boundary
and therefore is outside the MSA/CMSA.  The word "part" is added to the
central city name in each of these cases.

An asterisk is appended to the names of five central cities that represent
the "balance" portion of a consolidated city.  A consolidated city
results from the merger of a county with its principal incorporated
place.  The "balance" is that portion of a consolidated city minus the
semi-independent places that remain.  The "balance" terminolgy replaces 
"remainder" used previously.  For more information on consolidated
cities, refer to the Glossary of Census Geographic Terms on the TIGER
Home page at <<http://www.census.gov/geo/www/tiger/glossary.html>>.
