If the Chicago-Naperville MSA is going to include Kankakee and Michigan City, then why aren't Waukegan, Kenosha, and Milwaukee included? Distance wise, some are closer and I'd say they're even more economically related.

Because the Census has commuting thresholds. Distance has nothing to do with it.

Apparently Michigan City meets that threshold, and Milwaukee doesn't (which isn't very surprising; Michigan City is a much easier commute to Chicago than Milwaukee, plus Milwaukee probably has a variety of jobs not present in Michigan City, meaning the latter town has more people forced into long commutes).

Michigan City is only about 40 miles from Chicago, BTW, and through relatively low-traffic Indiana and South Side Chicago. Milwaukee is like 90 miles from Chicago, and a commute would go through the most congested parts of the region.

waukegan and kenosha are already included in chicago's MSA.

milwaukee is another animal entirely and has its own economic gravity that keeps commuter exchange rates low enough not to be consolidated with chicago into some kind of super-CSA.

frankly, i think even including michigan city into chicago's CSA is a bit silly (it's on the other freaking side of lake michigan for christ's sake!), but apparently enough people commute into other NW indiana counties from there to include it.

I personally don't give much weight to CSAs unless it's a few in the US. San Francisco-San Jose makes sense and so does Washington-Baltimore, but having a CSA for Chicago and Michigan City, IN is like comparing apples to oranges. I think it's important to show CSAs for those cases like above, but also don't necessarily think it should be compared to unlike entities like a Chicago area which doesn't have another large city/economic player in its MSA like the others do. The only way it would make sense, to me at least, is if Chicago also included Milwaukee - which it doesn't.

Great job, dimondpark!

Could you post their growth rate as well (2010 vs 2015 and 2014 vs 2015)? Detroit MSA is back ahead Minneapolis MSA as the second most important economy in the Midwest.

Michigan City is about 60 miles for any form of land-based transportation. However, the commute time is nearly identical for Milwaukee and Michigan City to downtown Chicago. Off-peak, I think Michigan City is faster however just because of the short distance.

What interests me is the comparison between the Bay Area CSA and the Chicago CSA when you look at the more agricultural-focused areas. The high-value crops and vertical integration (IE on-site wine production, etc) really show their value when you compare GDP vs Middle America areas, where agriculture is more concentrated in the "inputs to the edible-industrial-complex" space. Kankakee MSA vs Napa MSA. They probably have a very similar population and number of acres dedicated to agriculture but Napa is 3x the GDP.

Napa's wine industry drives the county/MSA's economy, both directly and through the region's significant tourism industry, with all the resorts, hotels, restaurants, bars, and shops that entails.

And while it is true Napa is significantly focused on agriculture in that it is a major wine producing region, and most of the county is rural (and mountainous), it is also true 100,000 of the MSA's 142,000 residents live in just two cities, the sprawlburb of American River Canyon and the historic city of Napa.

"Napa 3x the GDP (per capita) of Kankanee" Wine & the tourism it creates has a much higher value than corn and soybeans. No tourists go out to visit the corn. Millions go out to visit the wineries, and pay handsome prices for bottles of Napa's finest. In October harvest time, you'd be amazed at the weekend traffic in the Napa & Sonoma valleys.
