Hello,

I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to correlate a city, county,
or zip code to a Google Metro Code?

For instance, I know that Penfield, NY is part of the Rochester
region, but is there any way to obtain a list of this from Google?

Thanks.

Hello,

There aren't any automated methods in the AdWords API for doing this
sort of correlation. The only information we provide is the static
list of supported codes at

http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/developer/adwords_api_us_metros.html

I don't know if there's a way to get clever with one of the geocoding
APIs and determine overlaps between cities/zips and those metro areas,
but it's not something that has an easy, out of the box solution.
Apologies.

Cheers,
