pmoehrin Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 This is a long post, but I feel like a somewhat informative one for this topic. I know there's a lot of information out there online regarding metro area population, but there isn't much regarding television market population data. The Wikipedia article on the subject provides some insights on the number of households but doesn't get into specifics on population data. Information on Canada is even more scarce. This page only considers metro data, and the map listed on the North America TV market page isn't even an accurate TV map. It's a radio map. That said, here are the population figures I was able to generate based on the 2020 US Census Data and 2021 Canadian Census Data. Both Detroit and Presque Isle TV markets cover a portion of Canada, so there will not be a one-for-one match between the Canadian/US markets and their total population figures. There was also a bit of guestimating with the location of some of the Canadian TV markets, but I feel like these figures are close enough to provide a good reference. You'll have to figure out the cities and metro areas included in each TV market as it would take me way too long to explain, but I'm happy to answer any questions in a PM if anyone has any.

BrySmalls Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 What statistical area are you using to calculate the US cities population? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmoehrin Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 3 hours ago, BrySmalls said: What statistical area are you using to calculate the US cities population? Television markets which can be seen in the map below. Some of the names are different, (Utah instead of Salt Lake City, West Michigan instead of Grand Rapids, etc.) but the mapping area is the same. This isn't the same thing as Metro Area and you'll see that Miami for example, has a smaller TV market than a metro area. This is because of West Palm Beach, which is included in the Miami metro area, but it's also it's own TV market. In some cases such as Lehigh Valley, the metro area can fall into either NYC or Philadelphia TV markets depending on which county we're looking at. The US population for the 2020 Census was listed at 331,449,281. The Canada figure was 36,991,981 for 2021. That totals to 368,441,262 which is the grand total you will get if you add up the population figures for every TV market I have listed.

To me, it's a better measure of so-called "market size" than metro area. The only reason I have this information at all is because a lot of my 9-5 job deals with advertising. The household info is useful if we're just talking about TV ratings, but it's tough to do an apples-to-apples comparison if we're talking about anything else. The population figures I provide allow this information to be used alongside Metro and Combined Statistical Area figures. The main file I have has that metro/CSA breakdown built-in, along with some demographic and economic data. Unfortunately, I cannot give that info out, as I feel like someone would steal it and use it for their own benefit without giving me any credit. Nothing like that has happened because of this board, and I doubt the this would happen even if I did give the file out. But I no longer trust anyone with my work.

Determining whether to use MSA or CSA is tricky when displaying maps as a graphic. It sounds like you have valuable geospatial data. I recommend keeping it under lock and key rather than making it freely available for anyone to use, run analysis on, and not give you any credit.

Why do you think I'm only listing the final figures? It would take anyone days if not months to reverse engineer those numbers. Good luck with Quebec for starters.

Speaking of Media Markets, There is also a DMA map on a site called TruckAds, it is clickable. https://www.truckads.com/designated-market-map.asp When you click a dot on the map it will show you more details of the market, for example the NY media market has counties in Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and even parts of Pennsylvania. And below the map of the market shows the rest of the media markets in the state, the affiliates of all the channels, the names of the counties and cities in the market. https://www.truckads.com/Designated-Market/New-York.htm#map 1 Quote trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used it to update one of my markets where I was off by a little under 30k. The excel file they are selling for $450 looks like an excel sheet I would have created when I was in my mid-20s. It isn't bad. But if you're incapable of doing a vlookup in Excel, or have no idea that you can download 90% of this stuff from the Census Bureau for free, you end up paying for this type of stuff. $250 every three months for zip code updates!!? How often do people think zip codes are updated? A file like they have from 2016 would probably still be good enough to use for whatever analysis you need to do.

TrueYankee26 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Something different: since this is a pointless realignment after all lol I made one for media companies. Warner Bros. Discovery buys Paramount Global and reforms The WB and UPN after the CW gets taken off the air. Comcast buys Electronic Arts. (a merger that almost happened in real life) Fox Corporation (21st Century Fox) and News Corporation unite after splitting in 2013, and buys Sinclair, thus forming 22nd Century Fox and getting back the Bally RSNs they sold from the Disney purchase of 21st Century Fox assets and renames them Fox Sports Net again. Walt Disney Company is at it again. They purchase Sony and then Apple buys the combined Disney-Sony Company. Not to be outdone, Google purchases Netflix and forms channels and movie studios of their own. A disgruntled man from San Antonio called Jason Terry Allen* graduated from UTSA and went to apply for a job at NBC but gets harshly denied. He gets hired by Disney as first a janitor, then he becomes a costume wearer for Mickey Mouse and gets a job for WABC but gets fired. He forms a company called Atlantic & Pacific Communications (A&P for short) and in no time it gets big. They purchase Microsoft. Three Networks following the A&P model - New England Communications (formed by Kelly McDoogal* after he gets fired by WBZ), Dixie Heart Corporation (formed by Chester Lester* after he was laid off from a CBS station in Arkansas) and Empire Communications (formed by Juan Castellanos* after quitting his job at WNYW and his side gig at Uber Eats) form a company called Liberty Enterprises.
