Montgomery metropolitan area

As of 2020, the MSA had a population of 386,047, ranking it 142nd among United States Metropolitan Statistical Areas.The original Montgomery–Alexander City Combined Statistical Area (CSA) was made up of six counties in central Alabama.When the OMB revised its definitions in 2023, Alexander City was again removed from the CSA with Tallapoosa County added to the nearby Columbus–Auburn–Opelika combined statistical area and with Coosa County becoming part of the Talladega–Sylacauga Micropolitan Statistical Area.It was one of the first regions in Alabama to flip towards the Republican Party, narrowly voting for Richard Nixon in 1960.With the one exception of George Wallace's third-party win in 1968, the Montgomery MSA would continue voting for Republicans, by varying margins, until Barack Obama's narrow victory there in 2012.
