I only listed the 6 largest because doing otherwise would have created a very long list. That's why I simply listed the number of MSAs that counted toward the population indicator.

For NYC, I used the following 23 MSAs.

• New York..........19,069,796
• Philadelphia.......... 5,968,252
• Providence.......... 1,600,642
• Hartford.......... 1,195,998
• Bridgeport, CT.......... 901,208
• Albany.......... 857,592
• New Haven, CT.......... 848,006
• Allentown, PA.......... 816,012
• Worcester, MA.......... 803,701
• Poughkeespie, NY.......... 677,094
• Scranton, PA.......... 549,454
• Lancaster, PA.......... 507,766
• Reading, PA.......... 407,125
• Trenton-Ewing, NJ.......... 366,222
• Atlantic City-Hammonton, NJ.......... 271,712
• Norwich-New London, CT.......... 266,830
• Binghamton, NY.......... 244,694
• Kingston, NY.......... 181,440
• Vineland-Millville-Bridgeton, NJ.......... 157,745
• Dover, DE.......... 157,741
• Lebanon, PA.......... 130,506
• Pittsfield, MA.......... 129,288
• Ocean City, NJ.......... 96,091

I hope you understand now. If I would have done that for each of the 13 largest MSAs, the original post would have been even longer than what it is now.
