Has population become more concentrated in urban places?  Examine changes in the difference in % urban between the two populations over time.  Have they become more alike over time? 

 

 

 

Examine when the the % urban and % rural lines cross each other.  That is the date when a population becomes predominately urban.

 

 

 

What had been happening to the rural population?  Are people leaving the countryside  --  i.e., is the absolute size of the rural population shrinking?
