Indio, Temecula, and Victorville are counterintuitively part of the Riverside MSA, as they are all in the same counties. Anyone who's ever driven around the LA area would think Riverside would be included with Los Angeles, but that's the government for you.

If Lancaster is supposed to be Lancaster, Pennsylvania it should be 552,984. If Lancaster, California it is part of the Los Angeles MSA.

Actually the whole list should end at #100, Scranton–Wilkes-Barre, PA (567,559), according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Scranton is missing from this quiz, which ends at actual #95 Augusta, Georgia, which has 611,000 even, not 444,000.
