Comparison of Increases.

A comparison of the figures for conti-
mental United States shows an increase
since 1900 in the population living in urban
territory of 1l.o3o, ,s4l. or 34.9 per cent.
The total population living in rural ter
ritory in 191O-that is. in the remainder
of continental United States outside of
urban communities-was 49.34S, So3, as
compared with a total population living
in the same territory In 1900 of A, 4O7 ,o33:'',
an increase in rural population during
the same period of 4.941 $50, or Ill per
cent. For continental United States as
whole, therefore, the rate of increase
for the population of urban areas was
fully three times that for the population
living in rural territory.
OF the total increase in the population
of continental United States during the
past decade u5,H7 69D, it also appears
that seven-tenths Q1,O3o.S4D was in ur-
ban territory and that only three-tenths
(4,941, ,SJO was in rural territory.
Considering the nine geographic divi-
sions of continental United States, the
table shows that the largest increases in
urban population since 1900 are for the
Pacific, west south central and mountain
divisions in the order named the per-
centages of increase being 1921, 6S.5 and
65.1, respectively. OF the fifteen states
and territories comprising these three di-
visions there are three states in which
the increase in urban population is less
than % per cent. and In six of them it
is more than 100 per cent. In all of the
states and territories comprising the
mountain and Pacific divisions there has
also been a considerable increase in rural
population; In each OF the four states
comprising the west south central divi-
sion there has also been an increase in
rural population, but in three of them
the increase is less than 20 per cent.
