For example, the Metropolitan Council uses a definition of seven core counties. <br />The Bureau of the Census, currently uses two defmitions to describe the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. <br />The first definition is a core Metropolitan Statistical Area or MSA that comprises 13 counties. The <br />second definition includes adjacent metropolitan and micropolitan areas that are combined with the core <br />13 -county region to form an 18 -county Combined Statistical Area or CSA. Because this market analysis <br />projects potential growth through 2030, with an emphasis on the northern half of the Twin Cities <br />Metropolitan Area, a 16 -county region was used to define the metropolitan region. <br />Figure 3-4 - 16 -County Twin Cities Metropolitan Region <br />Tadd <br />Randiyohi <br />kedwo d <br />Bra. <br />'Wallonwan <br />Steerna <br />Meeker <br />Mille Lac* Kana... <br />Renlbn <br />Sherburne <br />Wright <br />MINNESOTA <br />McLeod Garver <br />810011.1 <br />8100 Earth <br />Scutt <br />Le Suear <br />Isar,' <br />Anoka <br />Rai <br />Rica <br />MUM.
