Chicagoland's MSA is already so absurdly over-bloated that jumping up to the CSA level only adds 5 mainly rural, low-population counties that only add up to about 370,000 people (<4% of the MSA).

So the needle wouldn't be moved a great deal if you added them in.

Oh yeah, NHWs are definitely a plurality here, but that's still true pretty much everywhere outside of the usual suspects like Honolulu, Miami, and the Cali cities.
