Evansville, IN-KY Metropolitan Statistical Area
- Evansville, IN-KY Metropolitan Statistical Area
The Evansville, IN-KY Metropolitan Statistical Area is the 142nd largest Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) in the United States. The primary city is Evansville, Indiana. Other Indiana cities include Boonville, Mount Vernon, Oakland City, and Princeton. Cities in Kentucky include Dixon, Henderson, Providence, and Robards.
The five largest towns are all in Indiana and include Newburgh, Fort Branch, Chandler, Haubstadt, and Owensville.
It was originally named the Evansville, IN Standard Metropolitan Area and was formed by the United States Census Bureau in 1950, consisting solely of Vanderburgh County, Indiana. As surrounding counties saw an increase in their population densities and the number of residents employed within Vanderburgh County, they met Census criteria to be added to the MSA. Four Indiana counties and two Kentucky counties are now a part of this MSA.
Because it includes counties in both Indiana and Kentucky, the Evansville metropolitan area is sometimes referred to as Kentuckiana but most often called the Tri-State Area, because of Illinois's proximity to the area.
¹ County was not a part of Evansville, IN-KY MSA at the time of this Census and the county's population is not included in MSA total.
