Every ten years after the federal decennial census, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) reviews the commute patterns and economic dependencies between counties. The general concept of these areas is one of a large population nucleus, together with adjacent communities that have a high degree of economic and social integration with that nucleus. For more information visit Metropolitan Areas in California.
