The Tri-Cities is the region comprising the cities of Kingsport , Johnson City , and Bristol and the surrounding smaller towns and communities in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia . All three cities are located in Northeast Tennessee, while Bristol has a twin city of the same name in Virginia.
The Tri-Cities region was formerly a single Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA); due to the U.S. Census Bureau 's revised definitions of urban areas in the early 2000s, it is now a Combined Statistical Area (CSA) with two metropolitan components: Johnson City and Kingsport–Bristol, TN–VA . [1 ] However, the Tri-Cities are usually still considered one population center, which is the fifth-largest in Tennessee.
