In 2023, the metropolitan area of New York-Newark-Jersey City had the biggest population in the United States.

In general, a metropolitan statistical area (MSA) is a core urbanized area with a population of at least 50,000 inhabitants – the smallest MSA is Carson City, with an estimated population of nearly 56,000. The urban area is made bigger by adjacent communities that are socially and economically linked to the center. MSAs are particularly helpful in tracking demographic change over time in large communities and allow officials to see where the largest pockets of inhabitants are in the country. How many MSAs are in the United States? There were 421 metropolitan statistical areas across the U.S. as of July 2021. The largest city in each MSA is designated the principal city and will be the first name in the title. An additional two cities can be added to the title, and these will be listed in population order based on the most recent census. So, in the example of New York-Newark-Jersey City, New York has the highest population, while Jersey City has the lowest. The U.S. Census Bureau conducts an official population count every ten years, and the new count is expected to be announced by the end of 2030.

Census data, as a traditional data source of resident socio-demographics, provides valuable information for decision-makers, researchers, and the public. While numerous efforts have been made to develop more comprehensive data products based on published census datasets, most approaches treat census units as static and independent entities, overlooking their interactions. In this paper, we introduce the visitor census dataset, a semantically enriched census that incorporates human visitations extracted from large-scale mobile positioning data. We identified and validated the potential home locations of 3.58 million anonymous mobile phone users across seven U.S. metropolitan statistical areas in July 2021 and utilized home detection results to enrich the socio-demographic profile of the places users visited. The proposed data generation framework is adaptive, allowing future integration of diverse socio-demographic features at varying spatial and temporal scales. Overall, this visitor-based census represents an effort to enrich resident-based census knowledge by incorporating mobilities and spatial interactions in human digital traces, bridging the gap between aggregated and individual analysis, as well as between conventional census and mobile phone data.Seven MSAs include Angeles–Long Beach–Anaheim (LA), Houston–Pasadena–The Woodlands (Houston), Atlanta–Sandy Springs–Roswell (Atlanta), Miami–Fort Lauderdale–West Palm Beach (Miami), Seattle–Tacoma–Bellevue (Seattle), Denver–Aurora–Centennial (Denver), and Minneapolis-Saint.
