PERCENTAGE OF URBAN RESIDENTS IN IMMIGRANT POPULATION 105 
from the British Isles, with 64.88 p.c. urban, standing second only to the Asiatics in this 
respect. That British immigration up to date has been directed in such large proportions 
to our cities and towns is of marked significance. 
In contrast with the Asiatics and also with those born in the British Isles, immigrants 
from Europe are less urban than the population as a whole, while those from the United 
States show a smaller proportion urban than the Europeans. In both cases the percentages 
urban are considerably below that for the total population, and if comparisons be made 
between immigrants from the British Isles, and from Europe and the United States, respect- 
ively, there is a difference of between 19 and 22 p.c. in the proportions urban. Obviously, 
Continental Europeans, as well as United States immigrants, include a larger proportion 
of agriculturists, while among the British large numbers follow commercial, manufacturing 
and professional pursuits. 
Table 52 gives the percentages urban for the European born, by geographical grouping 
of countries of birth. North Western Europeans are considerably less urban than those from 
South, Eastern and Central Europe. The percentage urban in the former case is 34.50, 
while for the latter group it is 50:12. These figures suggest a very real difference between 
the people who come from these two sections of the continent, and because of the differing 
conditions of life in urban and rural districts, it is only to be expected that such a marked 
difference’ in territorial distribution would be reflected in the type and extent of the adjust- 
ments which the foreign born have made and are making to their new Canadian home.
