It is the primary metropolitan area in the [[Illinois–Indiana–Kentucky Tri-State Area]]. ==History== It was originally ~~named~~designated the Evansville, INIndiana, ~~Standard~~standard ~~Metropolitan~~metropolitan ~~Area~~area and was formed by the [[United States Census Bureau]] in 1950, consisting solely of [[Vanderburgh County, Indiana]]. As surrounding counties saw an increase in their population densities and the number of residents employed within Vanderburgh County, they met Census criteria to be added to the MSA. Four [[Indiana]] [[County (United States)\|counties]] and two [[Kentucky]] counties are now a part of this MSA. Because it includes counties in both Indiana and Kentucky, the Evansville metropolitan area is sometimes referred to as "[[Kentuckiana]]". The entire region is usually referred to as the [[Illinois–Indiana–Kentucky Tri-State Area\|Tri-State]] because of [[Illinois]] bordering [[Posey County]] less than 20 miles west of Evansville and to distinguish it from the [[Louisville metropolitan area]].
