I enjoy living in a rural area, do you live in a rural area?
Somewhat of a rural area, I live in small town on the outskirts of large city.  What about you?
Rural areas have a low population density and small settlements. My area is pretty rural. Is your population large? 
That's good to know, I might live in a pretty rural area then! We have around 10,000 people in my town, is that considered large?
Yes I would think so. Different countries have varying definitions of "rural" for statistical as well as administrative purposes. Are you from the United states?
Yes, I am from the United States, do you also?
Yes, In Canada, the census division has been used to represent "regions" and census consolidated sub-divisions have been used to represent communities
That is interesting, I would assume Canada in general is a lot more rural than the United States, is that correct?
I would think so. Whatever is not urban is considered rural, and actually in 2006, the year of the last census of population, the Canadian population living in a rural area was between 19% and 30% of the total population, depending on the definition of "rural" used.
Wow, that is a large percentage of the their population, has it increased or decreased since then?
