Curious on what they considered as Metro. You would have to expand the city boundaries to Birmingham for Tuscaloosa and Montgomery for Auburn to show those population levels.
Tuscaloosa MSA is defined as Tuscaloosa County.
Auburn-Opelika MSA is defined as Lee County.
Those totals are simply the total population of those counties.

METROPOLITAN AREA: A metropolitan area, sometimes referred to as a metro area or commuter belt, is a region consisting of a densely populated urban core and its less-populated surrounding territories, sharing industry, infrastructure, and housing.
MICROPOLITAN AREA: Same as metropolitan area, but a micropolitan area contains an urban core of at least 10,000, but less than 50,000, population.

Is Birmingham just Jefferson County ? Which is misleading if so. You would think it would be defined by a measurement (distance) from the city limits.
