Harrisburg–Carlisle metropolitan statistical area
Summary
The Harrisburg–Carlisle metropolitan statistical area, officially the Harrisburg–Carlisle, PA Metropolitan Statistical Area, and also referred to as the Susquehanna Valley, is defined by the Office of Management and Budget as an area consisting of three counties in South Central Pennsylvania, anchored by the cities of Harrisburg and Carlisle.
As of the 2020 census, the metropolitan statistical area (MSA) had a population of 591,712, making it the fourth-most-populous metropolitan area in Pennsylvania, after the Delaware Valley, Greater Pittsburgh, and the Lehigh Valley.
Since 2012, it has been defined as part of the Harrisburg–York–Lebanon combined statistical area, which also includes York, Lebanon, and Adams counties.
The Harrisburg–Carlisle Metropolitan Area consists of three counties, located entirely within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The following three counties are designated as being part of the greater Harrisburg–Carlisle area:
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania
Dauphin County, Pennsylvania
Perry County, Pennsylvania
Officially, Lebanon County is not part of the Harrisburg–Carlisle metropolitan statistical area, and hasn't been since 2003, and is rather part of combined statistical area; however, it is culturally considered to be part of Greater Harrisburg with Harrisburg suburbs extending into the county.
Harrisburg–York–Lebanon combined statistical area
Additionally, three more counties are included as part of the Harrisburg–York–Lebanon, PA Combined Statistical Area. Collectively, they have a population of 1,271,801 people, making it the 46th-most-populous combined statistical area (CSA) in the United States, and the 3rd-most-populous CSA in the state of Pennsylvania.
Adams County, Pennsylvania
Lebanon County, Pennsylvania
York County, Pennsylvania
1950: The Harrisburg standard metropolitan area (SMA), consisting of Cumberland and Dauphin counties, was first defined.
1959: Following a term change by the Bureau of the Budget (present-day Office of Management and Budget), the Harrisburg SMA became the Harrisburg standard metropolitan statistical area (SMSA).
