At first I thought it was a good idea for user Mb93j to create this page, but now I'm wondering if it is essentially the same as the First Coast, making it redundant? Kevinsnow 16:30, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

No, Baker County is in the Jax Metro area, while it isn't in the First Coast. Also, Flagler County is in the First Coast but is closer to Daytona. Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 01:29, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

I cannot understand why the Jacksonville Metropolitan Area includes five counties! That isn't correct. The five counties are not formally joined politically, economically or commercially. The five have their own governments, departments of public safety, their own commerical drivers and financial focus. 68.218.155.46 11:43, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Metropolitan Statistical Areas are defined by the Office of Management and Budget based on economic factors. They are designed to represent large areas that functio as a single business market. -- Donald Albury 23:21, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
