Comments for Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA)
What does SMSA mean? Is there some kind of a fee or license number?
Dec 07, 2023 15:23:20Hello Pam, thank you for contacting us!
The US Census Bureau coined the term "Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area" to determine geographic areas for collecting and publishing statistics.
As for fees or license numbers associated with SMSA, it depends on the industry or regulatory body involved. For example, suppose you're referring to a professional license or certification. In that case, you may need to contact the relevant licensing board or organization for specific information on fees and license numbers. You should check with the appropriate government agency if it's related to a government or administrative process.
