These mountain ranges form adjacent valleys which have served to collect and integrate the regional cities and towns together into urbanized channels that follow the valleys northeasterly. This has served to give the area a unique sense of identity and economic integration.
The median household income for the MSA was $30,916 and the average household income was $39,021. The Cumberland Metro is one of the poorest in the United States, ranking 305th out of 318 metropolitan areas in per capita income.
