The United States Census Bureau defined metropolitan areas in 1950 for the first time, and that's the definition I used here, with just some adaptations in New England areas: the Census defined them by cities back then and I used the counties. All the sums are mine.
I also used the 1950's definiton for the 1940, 1930, 1920, 1910 and 1900 lists.
