Greater Los Angeles, or the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area (CMSA, a standard U.S. Census Bureau designation), includes Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura counties.
In 2000 the Los Angeles CMSA was the second-largest CMSA in the United States (after the greater New York CMSA) in terms of population, with 16,373,645 people. Since the 1980s, when most of the livable space of central Los Angeles and Orange counties was occupied, the fastest-growing areas have been on the eastern extent of the metropolis, in Riverside and San Bernardino counties.
Besides those already listed, the principal cities of the Los Angeles CMSA are Santa Ana (342,715) and Anaheim (333,776), in Orange County (southeast of Los Angeles County); San Bernardino (198,406) and Riverside (288,384), in San Bernardino and Riverside counties (to the east) and Oxnard (183,587) and Ventura (officially San Buenaventura, 104,068), in Ventura County, which marks the western extent of the Los Angeles CMSA.
