ADP: Metro Regions by Workers Earning $500K+, $1M+ and $2M+

I created a thread about this back in 2024, but I have calculated actual numbers and are sharing them here.

According to ADP: "We used a sample consisting of hundreds of millions of active and anonymized ADP payroll records spanning the period from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024..."

The data was categorized by Combined Statistical Area(CSA) where applicable, and also to large unattached Metropolitan Statistical Areas(MSA)

So I compared this to Census employment numbers and came up with the following for all CSAs and MSAs with 2 million+ population:
