English term or phrase: MSA Metropolitan Statistical Area

Technical term for US real estate - I'm looking for an equivalent German term (rather than a literal translation).

I already asked a very similar term - having checked with my customer, this is the correct one... ;-)

Flächen von Städten

Explanation:
This is what EURODIC offers. This could fit.

First I thought about "Städtisch geprägte Flächen", but this is more mode of use.

Here the definition of MSA:

The general concept of a metropolitan area is that of a geographic area consisting of a large population nucleus together with adjacent communities having a high degree of economic and social integration with the nucleus.

an urban area that meets specified size criteria:either it has a core city of at least 50,000 inhabitants within its corporate limits,or it contains an urbanized area of at least 50,000 inhabitants and has a total population of at least 100,000
