Can anyone explain why Mercer County, Pennsylvania is not listed as part of the Youngstown metropolitan area, although it's included on the map, and in the census source? It's listed as a separate micropolitan statistical area, but I don't know why. Kk.urban ( talk) 22:34, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

The Youngstown OH stats must be off. All three numbers (2023, 2020, % change) are exactly the same as the next entry, Savannah GA metropolitan area. The different ranking numbers also point to a transcription error. Mason.Jones ( talk) 15:44, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
The problem with never changing the 2020 census population on the chart is that some of the MSA definitions have changed since 2020, and comparing the 2023 estimates for the current definition of an MSA to the 2020 census report for a previous definition of that MSA may be grossly misleading about any changes in population.

Minor question, but in {{ U.S. city population tables}}, should the numbers include Puerto Rico? Kk.urban ( talk) 22:45, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
Can the 2023 estimates be used on respective pages, or are the 2020 full census numbers what should be used? Keystone18 ( talk) 15:35, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
