In 2000, the total population of the U.S. was 281,421,906, the urban population was 222,360,539 (79.01%), and the rural population of the U.S. was 59,061,367 (20.99%)
That statistic doesn't make sense because it leaves no room for any category in between rural and urban. What about suburban? Even exurban? Gotta do better than that.
