Without knowing the area, I can only speculate that "Tri-Cities" is a locally
common name for the entire metro, but assuming it is, I like the way it looks
on Mapnik, so it seems like a case of tagging for the renderer. How about
"place=metro"?
More could be done with metro areas. For example,

This would at least tie it to an existing US standard.
