Lead is a highlight of article
editI copied some text only in the lead to the relevant article sections. The lead is meant to be a highlight of the article, not a unique source of cited data. One confusing ref is the 2012 Factfinder from the Census, used to support 2017 estimate of population. I found a usable ref from Business Insider to replace an illegible ref, about the fast growth rate of the metro area. - - Prairieplant (talk) 22:11, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
