Fairfield is excluded from the New York MSA, but is instead part of its own Bridgeport-Stamford-Norwalk MSA. Why is it separated out?

Usually MSA determinations are based on commuting patterns. So while some people in Fairfield do commute to NYC, it’s not most.

Stamford is in Connecticut that might have some bearing.

Way too far out to be Metro NYC.

Ocean County (75 miles from Manhattan) is part of the New York MSA.

Probably because the New York MSA is actually the New York, Newark, Jersey City MSA

A bit off topic and I am going to go out on a limb here, but just how rich are you ?
