For the D1-D5 system we consider a family of sub-ensembles of states, and find that in each case the boundary area of the fuzzball satisfies a Bekenstein type relation with the entropy enclosed. We suggest a relation between the `capped throat' structure of microstate geometries and the fact that the extremal hole was found to have zero entropy in some gravity computations. We examine quantum corrections including string 1-loop effects and check that they do not affect our leading order computations.37 pages, 6 figures, LatexHigh Energy Physics - TheoryBlack hole size and phase space volumestext
