Urbanization: urban population: 68% of total population (2010)
Definition: This entry provides two measures of the degree of
urbanization of a population. The first, urban population,
describes the percentage of the total population living in urban
areas, as defined by the country. The second, rate of
urbanization, describes the projected average rate of change of
the size of the urban population over the given period of time.
Additionally, the World entry includes a list of the ten largest
urban agglomerations. An urban agglomeration is defined as
comprising the city or town proper and also the suburban fringe
or thickly settled territory lying outside of, but adjacent to,
the boundaries of the city. Source: CIA World Factbook - Unless
