Sorry, I forgot to include the headers in the quoted table. Including those:

 Geographic Division:# of AreasTotal PopulationPercent of U.S. Total Total
U.S. Population  285,230,516100 Population living in Urban Areas 2 3,629
225,956,06079.219 Population living in Rural Areas  59,274,45620.781 **

Also, for the world population, a citation (not necessarily the best, but
