[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]80+% of Americans live in cities... [/quote] This is not correct. About 80% of Americans live in “urban areas” defined as Metropolitan Statistical Areas or MSAs, which include suburbs and exurbs. The DC area MSA is about 5 million people and includes Jefferson County, WV, Spotsyvania County, VA and Charles County, MD. When you break out these “urban areas” in MSAs into cities versus suburbs, it is about 27% city and 56% suburb. The vast majority of Americans live in suburbs.[/quote]
