Table Of United States Combined Statistical Areas
The United States Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has defined 166 Combined Statistical Areas (CSAs) for the United States and three for Puerto Rico. The OMB defines a Combined Statistical Area as an aggregate of adjacent Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs) (either Metropolitan Statistical Areas or Micropolitan Statistical Areas) that are linked by commuting ties.
The Combined Statistical Area is the most extensive of the metropolitan area concepts defined by the OMB. The population of a Combined Statistical Area is the sum of its (often similarly named) constituent Core Based Statistical Areas. Many other metropolitan areas such as Phoenix, San Diego, Tampa and San Antonio have only a single urban core, and thus have no associated CSA. In addition, the U.S. Census Bureau considers only the U.S. resident population of metropolitan areas adjacent to international borders, such as Detroit, San Diego, Buffalo, and El Paso. The bureau does not count people living near the United States but not actually in the country, such as Canadians living near Detroit or Buffalo, or Mexicans living near El Paso or San Diego.

“The United States is the only great nation whose government is operated without a budget. The fact is to be the more striking when it is considered that budgets and budget procedures are the outgrowth of democratic doctrines and have an important part in developing the modern constitutional rights.... The constitutional purpose of a budget is to make government responsive to public opinion and responsible for its acts.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“In the case of a deliberate, palpable, and dangerous exercise of ... powers not granted by the compact, the States ... are in duty bound to interpose for arresting the progress of the evil, and for maintaining within their respective limits the authorities, rights, and liberties appertaining to them.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
“Riches have never fascinated me, unless combined with the greatest charm or distinction.”

“Helping children at a level of genuine intellectual inquiry takes imagination on the part of the adult. Even more, it takes the courage to become a resource in unfamiliar areas of knowledge and in ones for which one has no taste. But parents, no less than teachers, must respect a child’s mind and not exploit it for their own vanity or ambition, or to soothe their own anxiety.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
