There are far more commonly used abbreviations (e.g. "LA", "KL" etc) that are not accepted on Jetpunk quizzes.
Its U.S. Census Metropolitan Area, which includes rural area, has 4,941,632 people.
Its U.S. Census Combined Statistical Area, which Jetpunk typically substitutes as urban areas, although containing disparate Census Urbanized Areas and surrounding rural area, has 8,466,186 people.
The 1st statistic is legitimate, contiguous urban population around Boston. The 3rd is non-contiguous U.S. Census Urbanized Areas of Boston, Providence, Manchester, Nashua, Fitchburg--Leominster, Hyannis (Barnstable / Cape Cod), New Bedford, Portsmouth, Dover--Rochester, MINUS some actual Urbanized Area population in other "metropolitan areas" directly across state lines from city centers yet attached to Portland 50 miles away as " metropolitan", PLUS much rural area. Although again, this is the standard "urban area" used by Jetpunk and faulty sites like Demographia and Citypopulation.de.
