says that 82.3% of the US population is "urban". I appreciate that that
can have a variety of meanings, but is it not nevertheless true that
most people in the US live in cities? I think the 90% there is meant to
refer to population, not land area.
(Note, I'm not talking about fairness here, just about the current
figures.)
