In 2013, the United States Census Bureau folded the CSA into the redefined London micropolitan area, and Knox County was added to the statistical area. This incidentally ended a statistical anomaly that excluded the 20% of the population of Corbin living in Knox County from the statistical area.
As of the 2010 United States Census, the region now defined as the London micropolitan area had a population of 126,369.
As of the census of 2000, the statistical area, which then consisted of only Laurel and Whitley Counties, had a population of 88,580 and had an estimated population of 96,562 in 2009.
