inner metropolitan ring
Explanation:
I am not 100% sure about this - I actually asked this question (well, 'corona metropolitana') on proz last year and the answer most people voted for was 'metropolitan ring'. Perhaps you could add 'inner' for 'primera'.

Oops - I forgot about \'barrios\' - well, I\'d say \'districts\' or \'neighbourhoods\'.

Thanks very much Sheila! Inner city would have looked quite pretty also but there was not enough evidence in the text to be sure it gave the proper meaning.

Without more context, I am looking at the translation in 1(b):

Oxford

corona f
1 a (de un soberano) crown; ciñó la corona en 1582 he was crowned in 1582; el heredero de la corona the crown prince
b (institución): la corona the Crown; los territorios de la corona Crown territories

Explanation:
Seeing this fragment within its context would have helped but I will give it a try:

"neighborhood of the first metropolitan crown"

I am assuming that "corona" refers to some monarchy but that is where the general context would have helped.

Hope it is of assistance to your work.

Kind regards,

Eduardo

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Lia Fail (X): Sounds like a public transport context. City divided into travel zones, centre, inner, outer rings etc

  -> thanks, Muriel:-)
agree  Timothy Barton: They may have got this expression from the Parisien context, where the Ile-de-France region is divided into the city of Paris and an inner and an outer "couronne".
