The metro area is wider, things like Jersey City and Westchester etc.

Jersey City is in the New York metro area, Staten Island is not.

>Staten Island is not.

As Wolfgang Pauli said after reviewing a paper, "That is not only not right; it is not even wrong".

(And if you are thinking of claiming that Staten Island's lack of a bridge or tunnel connection to the rest of the city is a disqualifier, please don't bother.)
