Compared with the rest of the Western Hemisphere, the patterns of population distribution in the United States and Canada are highly similar. This historico-statistical review shows that both nations have had "urban" majorities since at least World War I. But Canadian urbanization has lagged behind that of the United States, and the same thing can be said about "metropolitan" de velopment which began on a large scale just after World War I
