Removal of old intro
The article used to say:
"As a typical colonial foundation, British North American provinces often developed cities relatively early in their histories."
Well, Egypt developed cities pretty early in its history, too. Some Native American civilizations also had huge cities. I'm not sure the implied claim is either factual or neutral. -- Beland 00:58, 25 Jul 2004 (UTC)
NPOV, balance and comprehensiveness
This article seems to be mainly citing rural/urban demographics from a particular source, in support of the concept of "rural exodus". Instead of selecting certain states to support a point, this article should contain across-the-board statistics, which should be obtainable from the US Census.
To live up to the promises of its title, this article should be expanded to cover more than just rural/urban issues, even though that's an interesting starting place. -- Beland 01:05, 25 Jul 2004 (UTC)
