大都市统计区(英语:United States Metropolitan Statistical Areas,简称MSA),又称都会统计区、都会统计地区,是在美国核心都市人口密度相对较高,和地区全体经济有密切关系的地理区域。这些地区并没有法律地位,由美国人口普查局和其他联邦政府机构出于统计目的使用[1]。核心都市区域人口超过5万人的,可被定为大都市统计区[2]。有些相邻的大都市统计区被合称为联合统计区(Combined Statistical Area,CSA)。人口多于1万但少于5万的,则是小都会统计区(United States Micropolitan Statistical Areas,µSA)。
