There are more city residents in the world than villagers

Recently, namely on May 23, urbanization covered more than half of the world's population. For the first time in history, the number of urban dwellers (3,303,992,253 people) exceeded the number of rural dwellers (3,338,666,404 people).

Similarly, of course, no one counted. However, it is precisely this conditional date of the “change” that happened to the demographers of the State University of North Carolina and the University of Georgia . This date is derived from the UN estimates of the level of urbanization by 2010.
